Comic 15

Hi there, sorry for the absence, i've been suffering from brain freeze as far as the comics are concerned; that, and i'm not a fan of drawing myself (not overly useful). Now im back in the swing of things, and i've got plenty of ideas for future comics!!
Mostly just little day to day happenings, not directly due to, or because of the depression, but all things are relative.

I've also been deciding on what style to draw my comic-self, most previous posts have been rather rough, quick sketches, and i want to refine my style for these comics. Lots of re-drawing will be involved, eventually....!

Although i have been actively practising positive thinking for quite some time now, over-analysis and paranoia is a pain; i can still end up making things worse by questioning them, seeing situations as negative.
I do recover more quickly now.

Late update, sorry! been a bit busy, then had a rubbish headache for a few days. Not been up to drawing much. Here is a lazy, rushed update!

Yesterday at work was one of these days, a day where you seemingly function from the outside, but inside you are somewhat numb, detached from your surroundings.

Some days i used to feel like the princess trapped up a tower, out of reach of help, in need of rescue....




















Now i know princesses need to stop waiting around and save themselves.....

Relapses are rare these days, but they do seem to have the worst timing.... Like this for example.

I seem to immediately loose the ability to string together any kind of sentence that makes sense. Oh and i normally end up sounding unintentionally needy too. BUM

Below are the pills that i take everyday,
and have been for about 6 years now. They are by no means a cure,
but they certainly help to keep me stable.

I find answering the phone a struggle, even when it's a friend. Unrecognised number?? NIGHTMARE!!!If they want me they'll leave a message.....

Emo's and depression, not the same thing, sure you can have depression and be an Emo, but depression has no specific face. It's an illness.

howdy

I will be posting a new comic later today. probably update everyweek day, undecided at the moment.

I would like to point out that largely the feelings i express in this comic are ones from over the many years i have been suffering; i am largely on top of things now, though i still have relapses, especially when things around me aren't going so great, things rub off on me, affect my mood.
I actually have little memory of when i was in my worst stage, i have heard from my mother some of the things i did, and it still doesnt trigger any memories of them.

The way my mind doesnt stop thinking and trying to understand things in way too much depth is still quite prevalent; it's these little thoughts i really want to illustrate!

Much love, Miss Jennie

Music lyrics take on another level when you're down.

Sometimes i find myself talking utter nonsense, and ruining moments of potential happiness in the process. Those moments when if i just shut my mouth, nothing would go wrong.
I have an amazing ability to self destruct. Instead of saying what i really mean too, my mouth just runs away from me, talking garbage, digging me deeper into a hole. The same hole i am trying to climb out of.  Then i try to back track, end up sounding desparate when i really dont mean to be, apologise, and the cycle just goes around again.

Also mobiles phones and depression are a deadly combination. Text messages are pretty much evil, they sound so sterile and really cant get the message across. Unfortunately for me i also have major phone phobia, i cant even phone my best friends without feeling sick.

Please understand us depressives often say exactly what we DONT mean!!!
