I'm going to confess something that most of you probably know already because I’m not very good at hiding it anymore... I'm not okay.
I've been hiding…Hiding behind a smile for a long time now, and it's beginning to destroy me and getting harder and harder to hide as this mask I place on every day begins to crack and fall apart.
I thought I've mastered the technique but I guess the years of building up all this sorrow is starting to drown me.
I'm never okay anymore, I hate it so much. I feel like I'm fine but I'm hiding behind a false smile and hiding behind a smile becomes difficult when you're stressing out to the max...
I was inspired to draw something finally after seeing this:

A heart-wrenching picture, for an equally heart-wrenching problem. It takes a lot of strength to come forward and admit such a think Neko - and I hope in friends and the community here, you can some support. Depression is not, and is never easy to deal with, nor it is something friends and support alone can fix. To admit it's there - that you're not okay, is an important thing though. As I hope you already know... you always welcome to PM or e-mail me if you want to talk about anything - I don't mind.
I have a hard time talking about my problems. because when I do it doesn't make sense to most people so I've just stopped talking to people about it. even now I can't. and I probably won't even if you offer me your ear....
Sorry TC...it's just who I am :(
I'll post stuff like this and I like hearing what people have to say but truth is I'm not seeking out for help...
it just makes me feel a little bit better to post vent art...
There is only one person who can truly help me but...it doesn't look like they will be able to help either so it seems *ears lower*
I'm simply waiting for the day the stress and sorrow finally takes over and im back to square one ^_^
Thanks TC for trying to help though...I appreciate it...really I do.

Venting through artwork is just as good as talking to people. The human brain is able to process emotional stress through a variety of means, after all. Maybe the problem with talking to people in the past was that they were trying to make sense of it. I think it's in most people's nature to want to help and want to analyze and "solve" the problem, but it doesn't work that way. All one can do is listen - it's often just talking about it that helps a little, kinda like the vent-art.
It's entirely up to you though Neko - I can't and wouldn't want to make ya. I'm just always happy to be here if you want to, K?
