Very ill. So much that I believed I was God and I experienced auditory hallucinations which confirmed that to me.
I cannot abide people laughing at or being horrible towards, people who suffer with #mentalillness or like me, with #bipolardisorder
The harder thing is reconstructing your life, after your nervous breakdowns and stays in hospital. The hardest thing, is learning to trust yourself and not allow yourself to be taken advantage of.
For me, I find relief in #drawing #illustration #portrait #graphicdesign #artist
I find relief in comedy. So I draw my heroes, like #kerrymucklowe #daisymaycooper and feel better about myself.

But you know that after all you have been through, you are valid. You are complete and nobody will hurt you if you are careful.
