Description
Trigger Warning: Cutting, self-harm, suicide, blood. You've been warned.
I realized it will take me about more than 2 weeks to finish the 6th character for the Six Fanarts challenge, because of new life adjustments... 'ya know...a new job and a new place. This week is training week by the time this is posted. So, I've queued this submission of this traditional art I made last year to at least be more active here. Hurray for posting something NOT digital art~! Yay for uniqueness, I guess~
Also, please don't think that just because I post something like this it means I'm feeling sorry for myself. I'm fine. I'm going through things alright. I have coping strategies, networks, and peers to rely on. I encourage everyone struggling with their mental health issues to do the same.

Over the waves peaceful at night
There among the stars glowing in the dark
You watch over me
Smiling down patiently

This was something I drew back when I was struggling pretty bad in college -- getting a terrible final grade, having terrible roommates, friends leaving me, peer pressure, question of faith...mostly about the last one. Sin and conviction, in faith to be exact. I dunno man ...the religious organization I joined in college made me think of self-loathing shit...that I'm a sinner and that nothing I do will make God happy or whatever. Hah There's a reason why I left that organization. They fed me good food, though; so, I'm very thankful for them taking care of me. But, I didn't appreciate the overemphasis of sin and conviction in their lectures; it gave me too much anxiety and depression. I had a bad anxiety attack at one point from their retreat too . That's why I left.
Initially, I didn't want to post this on here, because I hate having to censor artworks I've done extensively to finish, especially artworks about depression. As much as possible, I don't want my works to be censored because of the details I meticulously include on my compositions. I changed my mind and decided to post this on here anyway, because it would be wasted efforts either way.
Also, please don't think that just because I post something like this it means I'm feeling sorry for myself. I'm fine. I'm going through things alright. I have coping strategies, networks, and peers to rely on. I encourage everyone struggling with their mental health issues to do the same.
