The main reason “dieting” doesn’t work is because people think it’s a temporary change rather than a lifelong change.

(You did address this, but it was quite far down, so I wanted to point it out more clearly.)

This is what always frustrates me when people complain about GIMP’s UI!

The common opinion is to “make it more like Photoshop”, but Photoshop is absolutely not beginner friendly - most of those people are just familiar with it already.

I remember being completely lost and constantly getting annoyed when I first started using Photoshop.

For anyone reading this who may not be aware, there’s a lot of overlap between the two diagnoses, and there’s a chance you may have both.

So what you’re saying is I have great potential but just need to apply myself?
