I will always be hiding that awful thing about me so it's not temporary
Nothing sounds awful about you from your post, rather it sounds like you cannot take how people in your current circles treat you.
This situation is not going to last if you distance yourself from the people that cause you to suffer. Family? Acquire your independence, don't mention "The Special Activities". "Friends" that ask for weed? Put distance from them, ignore who you can afford to.
There are people out there that will not put as much a burden on you.
In the meantime you can ignore special treatment people give you, despite how frustrated it might make you feel: why would it actually prevent you from making anything? Make it and ignore comments.
It's not just my current circle, it's the world. Everyone. I'm completely alone for wanting actual equality. Everyone believes minorities should just be high school bullies towards majority groups instead of there being actual equality and unity. I don't care if other games are better than mine. I made what I wanted to make. I hate that everything I create becomes ammo in a race war against other creators who weren't even aware they were competing. Where my ratings and revenue are only inflated and used to "attack" white creators. It's just not fair. Every other creator is a creator, and black creators are perpetual victims. If I made bad content then vote with your time and money. It's not fucking racist to not consume bad media. I hate being infantilized. There's no point in doing anything in this world.
Not everyone does or thinks what you describe, no one except the people you consider the opinions of. So ignore this noise, and focus on the rest that don't do those things. You are not responsible for what others do. Keep your own messaging consistent about equality and fairness and forget about what others may say online. Support creators that were hurt by others if you feel it will help. Remember that your are not responsible for what others do.
You understand that this attitude is what's keeping you down right? We always had to derive the source of meaning from ourselves for anything we do. As example I try to create in order to either make people's lives easier, or to immerse them in interesting worlds. You may create games to elicit all kinds of emotions in your players too. And again: ignore the noise, focus on the actual positive impact you may have delivered. Make the positive outweigh the negatives. You feel like doing nothing? Take a temporary break, seek professional help.
It's ok to vent but bathing in self-misery is not. Seek help outside of Lemmy. Nothing seems inherently wrong with you, your frustration is justified, the world doesn't end here. Being tired is ok, you can take a break to calm down, damp the noise, and find what you can do to make the world nicer and more interesting. You don't need to fix everything.
Maybe I just didn't get the point of this community and this post, but I wish you to stop focusing on misery and find that you can be your own beacon of light and that others went through what you are going through.
