Hi all! First off, just wanted to say thank you for all the wonderful birthday wishes 🥰❤️✨ I had a great weekend and felt very celebrated!
Unfortunately, I’m still struggling with depression. It’s frustrating because I’m doing everything “right”. Taking my meds, exercising, meditating, etc. But I’m hanging in there and know there’s a light at the end of this tunnel 🥰❤️💖 Staying strong! Much love, Meg

2024-05-29 03:38:11 +0000 UTCHappy birthday! The first one is super powerful; well done. & the second one... I identify w/ that so much. It is so fucking frustrating when I'm actually doing the stuff to take care of myself & my brain makes it feel worse than when I wasn't doing the right things. I'm doing my best to stay the course, & it helps a lot to know & see I'm not alone w/ that particular aspect of the struggle.

2024-05-28 23:38:22 +0000 UTCDamn that first one hits hard, A+ quality art that made me feel feelings. Support for you parasocial friend! I usually latch on to the first good or relaxed feeling I have then treat it like a stepping stone to keep moving from little good to the next little good. Also a good pupper hug and snuggle.

2024-05-28 19:48:41 +0000 UTCIve only got a sec to leave a comment (but I'll forget to come back later). You're doing great. It's so f**king hard. I've been on my meds for 10 years this month, in therapy in and out for years, etc. and I still struggle, it still feels like I'm swimming in the dark. But there are a lot more days with sunshine and I am "way less sad" (there's a song of the same name by AJR, its a fun listen). It gets better. But damn is it hard. And thank you for sharing your art and feelings with us over the years. Your art has done a great job capturing how I'm feeling so many times. ❤️❤️

2024-05-28 19:19:42 +0000 UTCI appreciate your depression comics. Few artists can really capture what it's like and you're one of them. I think something people without depression/bipolar don't understand, maybe can't understand, is that depression doesn't care if you have a "good reason" to be down. Some of my worst cycles came when my life was objectively great. Our brains just work like that and you're doing what you need to do to get through it.

2024-05-28 18:57:59 +0000 UTCThe fact that you're able to keep doing the "right" things while in a depressive patch is amazing to me. You're a rockstar! And don't worry, depressive episodes end. Your brain will try to tell you they won't, but they always do. There is a light at the end of the tunnel! <3

2024-05-28 18:49:27 +0000 UTCHey there. I don’t know if you’re still seeing a therapist, but mine just helped me discover I’ve been dealing with problems with shame. She talked about how shame is very different from guilt and how shame is where you think any problem you have or that others have is your fault, that you’re the bad person, that you don’t deserve x, y, and z because you aren’t “worthy”. From being a long time fan of your work, maybe that’s what could be going on? I watched a YouTube video about how to combat it and it was really helpful (Christopher Germer Self Compassion). I can’t imagine how hard things must be right now, but just know you’re not alone ❤️
