Commentary from March 2, 2014
This is basically a redo of depression comix 100 except in that strip I left it extremely vague. I think I was kind of afraid to write what the character was actually thinking, hoping that people who were also in that position would pick it up (and there were). Now I’m not afraid to say these things and hence it was time to update the strip especially considering the sweetness of the last two strips. A strip about death should return the comic to what it’s really about — an illness that makes you think it’s okay to destroy yourself.
Yes, had many of those days.
Been there, done that.
Ugh. Yes. Too often.
One of my more common thoughts.
All too familiar.
Yea, that thought is still around.
Not only that… Sometimes I consider jumping in front of the car, yet reminds myself what mental and physical harm I could cause to the driver… Guess there’s still a little common sense left in my head then..
A lump I have was just diagnosed as benign. My first thought: goddammit!
I get these thoughts around trams. Big, heavy, slow on stoping. I’m both somewhat sad and relieved that I’m not the only one.
the only thing that’s stopped me some days is thinking ‘but how bad would the driver feel? I couldn’t make someone feel like I do’
Jay, this too. I used to play with this thought everyday in the metro.
