Here Are 26 Of The Drawings That I’ve Made Following The Journey Depicting My Mental Health

Jeepers Creepers! Where'd you get those peepers? What you looking at Willis!

This reminds me of the awful feeling of wanting to get away from yourself, and feeling trapped in this prison that has become your mind and body... familiar feeling.

Hey, this is your profile pic! You did a great job😊

At some point you just become numb to it all

Ooh I like this one. I love the hair... I couldn't draw hair to save my life😅

Love this! Thank you

I call my depression a parasite, because it feeds off and drains my life force by spreading itself in my own voice in my head. My other demons (C-PTSD, anxiety, perfectionism, self harm) live in a little dungeon I created in my mind, locked away but not in solitary confinement, so they can still talk to each other and depression still sneaks in and feeds them, too. Most of the time, I hold the keys to the dungeon, and can shut them up, but lately, the inmates are running that particular asylum

Man my parents beat me like a drum! Was a cake walk compared to the psychological and mental abuse!

Poor little guy

This one's cool!! I like the detail

TOOTHLESSSSSSSS!!!!

it doesn't truly end your pain, it only ends you. your pain is passed on to those around you, and therefore, instead of being diminished, it is multiplied.

Not that much of mine left!

Maybe one chain is the baggage and one is the abuse. Makes sense to why people have such a damn hard time getting out of abusive relationships.

Don't that happen in every family?

It would definitely be a good thing to do, but it's hard to do sometimes. Sometimes you can put the past aside, but parting with the behaviors and thought processes it taught you can be hard. (By the way, I really appreciate these artworks and the messages they express! Keep up the amazing work!)

This looks really nice 😊 The blue is cute

Darn onions!

I'm a firm believer that sometimes a good solo cry is not only cathartic, but healthy and normal

What is the difference between insomniacs and people who just can't sleep? One is stress and nerve related because of a situation. The other is chemical imbalances! Too much sugar, caffeine and junk food!

this sure looks like a happy you.

now green-grey eyes? hmm

Just as an art critique, if you blend the lines some, it'll look even better. The crisp and sharp lines like this make them look more like cuts. Which if you have cut yourself, don't be ashamed to show it. Just shows the world it screwed with you, but you're still there. Shows you're strong, not weak. You didn't take your emotions out on others. You controlled it in yourself. That's strength.

Hey, it still goods great. I can barely draw human faces anymore from the side, let alone from the front now.

This looks like a character that'd be in an anime and have some sort of telekinetic powers
