Cats were always a treasure for me. They helped with the sadness.
I have 3 cats an that never happens because they sleep on my bed with my fiance
Waking up early was extra tough for me, and when I did, this would happen.
I’d like to believe that we all have something to be proud of, even if it’s small.
You got out of bed? Great! You tidied up your room a bit? Great! You fed yourself? Impressive! These things are obscenely difficult for people with depression/anxiety/other mental health issues, so doing them is extra special and deserves praise :).
Just because you are an introvert, it does not mean you stay in bed all day.
They were always a treasure, unless this happened.
Despite their furry rejections and claims to my stuff, I still spent my nights like this.
My self-discipline was all over the place, and I occasionally found myself in this situation.
Social anxiety and depression are a dangerous mix, but I wanted to show that people were not alone in this.
Being shy also came with its share of bullying, unfortunately. Sometimes, I needed someone to talk to, and this feeling would hold me back.
It feels like your putting all of your problems on someone else forthem to solve, but your too scared of them being hurt themselves or them hating you. Then you regret trying to talk to them , its a never ending cycle and its scary
Yessss!!! People say "Hey man I'm here for you." but then when you actually want to to talk about your problems you always feel like you'd be burdening them with your problems and they never actually meant what they said and just **panic attack ensues**
Recently for some reason I feel like I eed to ask everyone that I hang out with alot if it's annoying that I hang out with them so much...
Boy this is good. Every time in my grade, I can't talk to people without worrying. I just talk to them, but then as they leave, I rethink and say to myself "they probably weren't planning that". It's a very sad thing about insecurity that is probably the worst thing about it. I deal with it more than I shoud. Even with autism.
When I got older I realized that I also never truly followed my dreams.
There are only two alternatives : you either give up all your dreams and have a mediocre life, or follow your dreams and fail pathetically. This one made the right choice.
When I got older I realized that I also never truly followed my dreams.
When I started these comics, I wanted to focus on the struggles of being shy. This would be one of them.
Ah yes, a wild compliment on your work that you worked extremely hard on but never hoped for any recognition. A self-loathers biggest foe.
Sometimes I find myself in bed late into the afternoon. When that happens, I feel like I’ve thrown my day away. But I found that a little kindness and understanding makes it better
When trying to make new friends, I felt like little things like this would hold me back.
I hate small talk so very much. I tend to use the same 3 or 4 phrases over and over again.
This is very true as well. On the rare times where I am in a conversation, I go on and on, and get too comfortable. It's sad how bad it gets. You never know where to stop.
I fall into the "too little" category. I find looking into the space between a person's eyes is helpful.
As time went on, I strived for self-improvement. But that can be hard without friends.
Hey! if you need a friend feel free to talk to me! :)
Load More Replies...As much as I tried, I was also very easily exhausted by socialization.
There's always the moment when you do decide to go out and then your social battery dies. It's pure panic and fatigue.
I never really understood social situations very well. So I would often be confused in the moment.
I don't really like anyone talking to me, but I'm getting better, I hope soon things will for you too
Load More Replies...I've learned how to melt into the background so that I can hear what they're saying and make sure it's not about me
Always remember, most people are actually too worried about what other people think of them to gossip about you. At least I tell myself that to help me sleep at night.
Load More Replies...Making time for friends I would sometimes notice how hard it was for me to just let go, and have a good time.
Speaking up for myself was never easy for me so I could never truly express what I wanted or needed.
So true. One day when I was at this indian restraunt, I had like a veggie meal, but barely ate any of it. It was good, but I did not want all of it yet, so then the waiter comes, and says that, but I can't speak out, and only watch it get taken. I regreted not saying anything. It was on my mind all day.
Some of these are to true. Everything in my closet is something that somebody suggested and I feel like I'll hurt or disappoint them if I say no to their suggestions
Ultimately, trying to admit what was wrong was a very big challenge, but necessary.
Mine is that what is I'm just being dramatic and that my problems aren't as big as I think they are and that I'd be wasting the time of the therapist even though they actually wanted to take the job and me as a client. You know, as well as the other fears.
Guys is everyone on bored panda mentally ill? I see allot of “this is so me” and “you can’t post my picture without permission!” It’s kinda worrying
It's so true, because everyone often has such a cheerful, and well-presenting attitude.
I tried a lot of things to help my poor self-control.
In the end, I believe what we all need is a little compassion to help us grow, more than anything. Thank you for reading.
I related to every one of this. But mine never has a happy ending i guess😂
Ikr? I just realized that I upvoted every one of these comics. So I made no difference. Story of my life lol.
Load More Replies...i had tears in my eyes after reading this..these comics touch my heart
So many times I would try to prove myself to my peers.
Ah yes. I'm girl but I always feel like since I'm heavier than my other friends I have to prove myself stronger.
Often times I would forget that I grew up entirely.
I'm 29 and I still get thrown off by seeing adult actors who are younger than me.
So many times I was misunderstood because of my timidness.
This is so true. When you are shy, you can be very vague, and that can get annoying for both people.
There were a lot of things that had to be accepted.
Lol-- just when I thought I was helping so much when I would pick up trash at recess. I would do it for fun, and know that I was helping. Then Teamseas came out and I was much happier becuase there was a use. I told that to my classmate, but she just said "um that's not helping". I just said "the trash dosen't end up in the ocean". She just said "well it got into a trash can so it will eventually". I whacked myself on the head with both the books in my hands.
All of these are relatable and it makes me sad to think about it...
The cartoons are charming and some of them are quite sad too. I recognise myself in some of them, particularly when i was a teenager. Yeah and some now too LOL. Nice touch the employee of the month thing.
I can relate to every single one. You are so talented, don't let anyone tell you different! :)
I loved the emotions coming out like fire breath - so relatable haha!
#9, 7am is late lol. I'm lucky if I get past 8 on the weekends. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
