Bio

Just a bored, lonely, depressed artist who draws manga and hates people. Don’t expect me to hold a conversation, and I’m usually not trying to be rude, I’m just blunt. Have a nice life, I’m certainly not

Am i just selfish and not really struggling?
Depression Support / by JustALonelyArtist

...See more I’m not sure how to, like, talk about mental health stuff, so i’m gonna sound weird probably, but do you ever feel like you can breathe and exist and be human, but at the same time feel like you’re lying about drowning inside because I have it ‘good’?    I feel like because I have a kind family and some close friends, that me being depressed or lonely is just selfishness, because other people are struggling and my suffering isn’t real or good enough, and that it has to be worse before i can reach out. I wanna live, I have dreams, but my mind keeps telling me that if I deserve help, I should be in a much worse situation. I have Anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, ARFID, and an eating disorder (all verified by a professional) and life sucks, but I just feel like a fake who’s taking away from people who are ‘actually’ (not sure what that means) struggling.    And I hate myself for hating myself and the loop just never ends, and I can’t clean anything and I go into sensory overload all the time and i can’t do anything about it, yet it feels like it’s never enough for my inner demons
