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!

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.

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

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.

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.

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!)

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!

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.
