Even if you can't do it you just do it anyway. Make something genuinely terrible. It's good for you.

I usually feel shame that stays with me for weeks or months.

That’s good because good artists (me) also feel this way (I am not a good artist)

I've got shame for years. But sometimes I draw something nice. I've actually seen some of my stuff reposted as memes, and that feels like the opposite of shame, whatever that is.

Anyway you don't do it for the art or whatever. You do it because it's good for you.
