I just drew what TOCD an questioning my gender feels like to me. I wrote almost all of my thoughts and worries and drew different versions of myself through my life. It’s bad also simple style but it helped me feel a LOT better. I used to do this with my OCD all the time, and only got back into the habit.
Omgg this is so good! ❤️
@blazed Thank you so much
Wow! This is amazing, I wish I could draw as good as you!
@plutosghost Awww :’) thank you so much, so good to hear from another artist.. also ADHD sufferer?? 👀 glad to know I’m not alone in the ocd+adhd combo
@Rage against the machine - Yes, I suffer from both unfortunately. ;_; I use art as a coping mechanism for my intrusive thoughts (because they can come with physical symptoms too) and ADHD makes it hard for me to concentrate on my favorite hobbies. It's a double whammy here.

@ZNDoom I used to use Krita and a Wacom tablet but switched to procreate on my iPad! Also yeah, college had made my OCD a billion times worse, first death ocd, then health ocd and then TOCD unfortunately :( but it’s okay, im on my way to therapy and I’m praying my therapist knows about OCD
@ZNDoom Haha I got my iPad ages ago, and been using it for years. Man, you’re right, the coursework really does affect me because there is SO MUCH to do. I am trying to power through and do my best tho, even on days I’m convinced I’ll fail. My relationship OCD flared up when I first joined college because previously I was in school with my boyfriend and we had a LOT of time together . and suddenly we were on two different paths. Fortunately we worked through that and are still together after a year of college!!
@ZNDoom Ooh! That’s a great idea (the halfway point thing). Good on you. For maintaining that too! Wishing the best for the both of you ❤️ time management is hard for me because of ADHD but I’m getting meds for that soon so hopefully that‘ll work out
This is awesome! I like drawing and painting so maybe I’ll try this for coping, thanks for the inspiration
@spookycupcake It really calmed me down and put things into perspective actually! I recommend it. When I was super struggling with OCD a few years ago I kept a sketchbook full of my thoughts and feelings
Love it!
Wowww omgg, I love your artstyle!!!:)
