Powerful Picture

mind-mountains:

I love this drawing, but I hate it. I love how the artist has captured mental illness perfectly. I hate what it represents and illustrates - because it illustrates my everyday struggle. I want to hang this picture on my wall. I want to carry it around with me, and when people ask whats wrong or where I’ve been or what has been happening, I just want to hand it to them. This disease cannot be described in words, but this illustration has pretty much summed a big part of it up.
This is such a good picture representing mental illnesses. Thousand of people have to cope with this battle everyday, they have a fight within themselves and it slowly claws away at them. Sometimes people win, but a lot of the time people lose. Just imagine having t deal with this everyday, yet still putting on a brave face for people, it's fucking hard but is done by a lot of people. You may not realise, but your best friend, partner, family etc. could be dealing with the devil on their back because of how common it is, you just don't necessarily see it.
