These comics mainly revolve around my mental health issues, my adorable partner (Prithvi), and my insanely supportive parent (Bharathi). It is essential to be positive, but at the same time, it is also necessary to acknowledge the dark side of depression, anxiety, BPD, and trauma recovery.

I started making these comics around two years ago, and the followers of my page have been so kind and supportive. If I can make even one person out there feel a little less alone in their battle with mental health or bring a smile on their face for half a second, then I think my art is on the right path.

I started writing fiction as a form of escapism but eventually gave it up. I find creating autobiographical comics to be so much more rewarding since I'm not running away from my life with this art form, instead, I translate my happy, sad, funny incidents into comics. 

Being a Chartered Accountant was my day job but I recently took the leap to become an artist full time.

It takes about 3 to 4 hours to create a comic. If it is an animated piece, then it takes slightly longer to make.

I'm happy to announce that volume 1 of my comic collection is currently available for pre-order. Check it out here.  

My comics have helped me cope with my mental health struggles significantly since it helps me focus on all the good in my life and to navigate my dark days.

And I hope that when people come across my comics they will feel a little less alone or it will brighten up their day for at least a second.

Ahh yes. Faking it til we make it! SO much better than, you know, having actual emotions. Wouldn't want to show too much of our human nature in public!

Sometimes it's okay not to be okay. Don't be in denial, but accept it as a temporary situation.

One of my best friends killed herself a month ago. She probably thought so too. It is not true. All the people that loved her are heartbroken including myself. I don't know if I'm ever going to get over this sadness. And I miss her so much.

Everyone makes mistakes. Everyone... it is part of being human. Forgiveness is a skill that can be applied to yourself as much as others.
