No one said to quit doing it. You can always make time for it and do other things with your life.

I dunno who's been shaming you like this, but doing so is wrong. Don't punish yourself because of others mocking you.

Like everyone else said, you shouldn't give up your interest for others.

You will receive criticism from someone for nearly you do in life. The least that you could do is continue what you enjoy. You owe it to yourself and no one else.
