Forgotten who I was before I started drinking

I used to be really into painting, photography, sculpting, artsy stuff like that. Then I started drinking and that became my only hobby. Now I feel too depressed and anxious to pick up a paintbrush again, I don’t feel worthy or good enough any more. How have you found joy in your hobbies again, or are you struggling too?
