Hey David,
This might sound crazy. I've talked to a lot of local, relatively established artists in my vicinity. That constant need to 'get better' will probably never go away. It's like a shared disease we all have as creatives that we can't just seem get rid of. I know it sucks, because, in a way, it validates our inadequacy.
This whole creative journey might be a "struggle". It might be "hard". But I really do hope that, despite those feelings, you'd also find a sense of comfort that it's okay to feel that way. That, in the end, drawing silly things is simply fun. A lot of people forget that.
And you're right. This art thing most of the time is a lonely and isolating procedure! You can always use the shoutbox to engage with fellow members. Or go to the CD Discord channel (https://discord.gg/azX8fwT) where some of the members usually hangout.
And, given you've succeeded entering your first post, you're already a dagger. Welcome to the Crimson Daggers.

If you are reading this, I most likely just gave you a crappy crit! What I'm basically trying to say is, don't give up!
