Trying to fill out the remainder of my current sketchbook and uhhh this scribbly comic just barfed its way into existence.
Transcript under the cut because my handwriting can get a bit too scratchy to read:
Panel 1 - “GOD… I am so lonely. I cried seeing a video a friend made of her year and it saddened me that I’m not close enough to be a more reoccuring friend in it.”
Panel 2 - “Lately though, I’ve been working so much that I don’t have a lot of social energy. And even when I do, I crave seeing friends irl but I don’t have a lot of friends irl in AZ…”
Panel 3 - “But sometimes I feel like an alien when I see how close my buds are to each other and I’m left wondering how I can have that in my life…”
Panel 4 - “But also… no one should be friends with me because I’m terrible at staying in touch and reaching out when I need to!!!”
Panel 5 - “It also doesn’t help that I’ve gotten irritated by my friends, often over small things! Like, really minuscule things!!! It’s obnoxious that I react this way!!!!”
Panel 6 - “Then I get mad at myself that I feel this way and sometimes it makes me snap and makes everything WORSE!!!”
Panel 7 - “And then I feel justified in isolating myself - I can’t get mad at others if I don’t see them. Even if it’s incredibly harmful.”
Panel 8 - “Not to mention that there’s a global pandemic going on and I’m way too fucking scared to get sick, so I don’t want to go out!!! UGHHH!”
Panel 9 - “EVERYTHING IS AWFUL!”
Panel 10 - “Rationally, I also know I’m PMSing super hard right now, which is giving power to my depression/ADHD.”
Panel 11 - “It'lls pass soon, it just fucking sucks right now! And I hate it! Anyways thanks for reading, things are rough right now and I appreciate you took the time to look through this. ”
Panel 12 - “The really shitty thing is if I post this publicly, I’ll be overwhelmed by the responses and it’ll take me some time to actually acknowledge everyone AHHH…”
