I was not in a good place mentally when I drew this. I had the belief that I will always be sick and that there is no future for me. I’m still here, I didn’t give up, and I’m so glad I didn’t. Things do get better, as much as I hate hearing people say that, it is true. If you’re going through some tough times, you have to ride it out and please seek help (friends, a work colleague, family, a helpline, medical professionals etc.). Giving up is never an option and self destructive behaviours will only bring you temporary relief, plus a whole lot of negative consequences afterwards. As small and lonely as you may feel in this world at times, I promise you that you are never alone and there are many people who care about you.

☆ our youngest dog calming down and not being as reactionary as he used to be

☆old church friend I have been able to reconnect with
☆ the beautiful area I get to live in
