Hello hello!
For ADHD Awareness Month this year, I’ve reworked the Buttons Comic that explains Executive Dysfunction and why we sometimes just can’t get started. I wanted it to be even easier to understand. I hope I succeeded (because it took me several weeks to get it all done).
Here is the old comic, if you remember this one! I guess it’s more correct to say that I wanted t...

Hello! About the Comic “Ghost”
When I came back online and to social media, I originally wanted to make a comic about why I’ve been missing - but nothing really felt right. I’ve finally come up with something I’m happy to post, but I have to be honest and say it was really hard to write about this. I think out of all comics I’ve ever made, this is the most vulnerable one to m...

Hello! I'm not sure how to word this the "right way", so I'll just jump straight into explaining where I have been. Let me just thank you for staying with me and supporting me and even reaching out to ask if I'm okay.
Where have I been?
I have been working on the ADHD Alien book.
I wanted to keep making comics in the evenings, but boy was that a miscal...

I already got the next comic preview for you! And it’s finally the start of the coping series, wohoo~
This series is really one where having a research assistant has been so valuable. Quite a few areas where I learnt something new but also got reprimanded by my assistant and asked to change the wording so as to not make information incorrect.
I can’t actually judge if people wil...

Hey!
I finally had some time to finish the next part of the ADHD toolbox: Inertia.
I know I know this is still going into explaining things rather than giving you coping strategies, but I felt like I needed to explain this before getting into the tools.
I was especially hoping that this would give you something to communicate with others why you sometimes just can't seem...

Hey!
Thank you all for being SO patient with me. This year has felt like 3 years in one.

I've handed in the script for the ADHD Alien Graphic Novel and finally got some much needed rest.

Hey!!
I'm almost finished with the first graphc in a series to explain Executive Dysfunction symptoms more in-depth. The first one I'm introducing is the problem with managing time!
I wanted to give a relatively fast overview over the problems that can occur due to Time Distortion, while also giving a wide net of examples of how this can affect real life.
I hope this will ...

Hey!
Did you know that our troubles with short-term memory, time distortion and emotional impermanence are all part of Executive Dysfunction?

"Executive Dysfunction" (EDF) is often used synonymous with what we experience when we can't get up and get started, but that's actually only one of the "symptoms...

Hey!
I'm back to tell you a little bit of what I've been doing! First of all, thank you so so much for your support. To be honest, it's been a bit rough for me lately. A lot of things in my life are changing, one of them is me moving. The worst is I don't know when that exactly will happen yet! So I've been living in a half boxed-up place for weeks. Or has it been m...

And here's a recording of me drawing the Aliens for the graphic! I usually sketch all of them and then put them on a huge canvas next to each other, this way I can make sure they look similar in scale and style. &...

Hey!
I've taken the comic I've posted last time about the things we get critisized for and turned it into a series aiming to clear up incorrect assumptions about our behavior. I have 30 of these (so 5 pages like this one) I will be finishing and posting over the next few weeks. (I'm still not 100% done with this one, but it's presentable for now). Once I really finalize this, I...

Hey!!
I'm not hyperactive...right?
Here's my next comic about how hyperactivity can show in adults, teens, or young girls that just can't afford to "act out" and be labeled "agressive" or "too loud". I think it's acceptable for hardly anyone of us to run around screaming like the hyperactive ADHD stereotype, so I wanted to create an overview of a...

Hey!
I just hit a milestone with the Graphic Novel, so I'm taking some time today to update you on some stuff I've been planning :) To be honest, is has been a bit hard writing the book and also trying to come up with comics I can post online. It's like... I'm running low on ADHD-juices haha.

I finally did it! I've been asked for months but only felt like it was the right time for me to make a comic about working from home *now*.
I've probably mentioned it before, but I was actually diagnosed because I started working from home and just couldn't get myself to work. No matter what I did, none of my coping strategies worked a...

Hey!
I'm currently super busy working on something big for ADHD Alien *wiggles antennas* so I haven't had the brain juice to finish the intro to ADHD thing, but creativity (hyperfocus) struck me tonight and it made me draw a joke-thing. I hope you enjoy it nonetheless!

I'm working on 2-3 comics at the moment!
"Why quarantine makes ADHD seem worse"
"An ADHD overview for loved ones" (this preview!)
And a collab with @theadhdgoodlife on instagram! If you don't know her, she is AMAZING. Her posts have so much content!
For this comic, I was thinking of creating a print or small flyer you can hand out or hang up for others to und...

I'll be working on a graphic trying to explore & explain why my ADHD seemingly gets worse during times like quarantine or summer break, where routine falls away. I've created a new Alien character who will join Pina in future comics, so can't wait to show you that (spoilers / teasers in the sketches). :)

Heya!
Today I can show you a sneak of the collab I've been working on with René! I'm super excited with how it turned out - I just need to finish putting on the text and it's ready to go. :)
If you don't know René, you have to check her out! Not only is she an incredible ADHD advocate, she also really helped me out when I was still a small creator myself. She's simply amazing!

My boyfriend sometimes suggests I make more of these graphics when I don't have a lot of time. But you know what? These graphics take so much more time than the traditional comics I make.
I think they'll be worth it though! As mentioned before, it's pretty hard to work on anything that tries to explain emotions, as emotions are one of the least talked about ADHD topic. I...
