Here Are 26 Of The Drawings That I’ve Made Following The Journey Depicting My Mental Health
A lot of my art represents disorders, or conditions, or just things that people go through (depression, anxiety, social anxiety, etc). Not everything is the same for everyone but these are general representations. Hope you enjoy it!

Social Anxiety
Depression/ Feeling Trapped
Feeling Like No One Listens To You
Heartbreak. Again
You Can Figure This One Out
Ooh I like this one. I love the hair... I couldn't draw hair to save my life😅
When Your Stress Levels Finally Max Out
We All Have Demons
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
Physical Abuse
One Of My Favorites. Represents Multiple Heartbreaks And Being Abused
Cracked Under Pressure
If You Know You Know
Suicidal. Don't Do It Though. It's Not Fair To Those Around You. Things'll Brighten Up Eventually
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.
Heartbreak Again
You Can See This As Emotional Baggage Or Being In A Possessive Relationship. I Like To See Both
Feeling Like Your Not Being Heard(I Hate The Hair Highlights But These Were All At Different Times)
Burn The Baggage. (Not Literally)
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!)
I Don't Do Blue A Lot And Thought This Would Be Fun
Resting B***h Face Much?
Kinda Speaks For Itself
Just Felt Like Crying
Insomniac ( Eye Bags)

Lonely Muscles. (First Time Drawing Muscles Better Than I Thought It Would End Up)
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.
I Coulda Done Better With The Shading
I Was Bored For This One Too
