Hey! I'm working on a comic /graphic explaining RSD (Rejection sensitive dysphoria) that's shareable with your loved ones / for you to have a quick overview. I want to cover:
- How it feels
- How it can be spotted
- Where it comes from
- tricks how to deal with it
Hey!
First off, I'll be streaming regularly (irregularly?!) a few more times, so if I haven't drawn you yet, I'll try to get to it!
And here's the preview for the next comic! I've gotten asked "How do I know if I have ADHD?" so often that I wanted to make a graphic. I focused on the things that were important to me and the things that I later realized shouldn't have been as m...
Hey! Send me photos per DM here or in discord or as email and I’ll draw you on stream :) If you email me please let me know your pledge amount!
Your photo won’t be seen on stream!
I’ll do streams more often now!

Heyoo!!
First of, let me say that I'm sorry that I just out and disappeared for a while. I had a really persistent fever/cough for 4 weeks and was blessed with migraines in the 5th, so I missed out on a lot of comic work. I curently look like this:
But I'm all good again! I'll get to answe...

Yo! I still have to rework the text a lot to refine the message, but I already wanted to share the comic with you guys. Also thanks to everyone who dropped by to watch me draw it on stream :). I think I'll do that more often!

Hey!
Just updating you with what I’m up to :). I’m currently still writing away on my pitch for the book, but I still wanted to show you what I’ve been working on.
They’ll be longer comics about the two topics that... really make me want to hide from everyone.
„Every day is the same“ (I never get anything done)
„Monster“ (in-depth of how an RSD episode...

Hey! Here's a first draft for a page of "Monster". It's...pretty difficult to write about it. As soon as I imagine someone reading it, my writing gets a little skewed trying to not look as bad. But I don't want that - at all. So I'm trying to imagine writing it to my teen self. I want to let her know that she isn't a monster for feeling emotions the way she does.
It's also kin...
2020-01-20 15:33:20 +0000 UTC View PostHey! Here the first rough text draft for the RSD shadow one. I’m working on another bigger RSD comic next, from before my diagnosis and when shit REALLY hits the fan, because god knows it usually doesn’t do as smooth as in this comic. Preview to for that one soon!

Hey! So the holidays were exhausting but still kind of relaxing and a much needed break. To be honest, at the moment I’m pretty nervous about the book pitch.
I’ll be working on making a 25?page pitch to send to publishers so hopefully i can get a real printed comic out soon :) but the thoughts about being just a clueless idiot started popping up. „Who ga...

Yo! I finally finished this :) I’ll be posting my research notes for „what is RSD?“ soon and will be posting 2-4? Comics about RSD beginning next year! Hope I can find the right words and coping strategies for something this emotional.

Hey! WIP of the next comic. I personally don't do well when people insist that I see ADHD as a super power and here is my opinion on it.

Hey! So Im working on the comics
- ADHD - gift or curse?
- How come Im always exhausted when Im so lazy
- RSD shadow
Ive started working in bulk - that means Ill have scripted all 3 comics before I start lining all 3 of them. I think Ill have the first finished Wednesday if all goes well!
I might throw in one graphic about overwork prevention...

Just some insights on what Im doing! Ive got 2 scripts finished (RSD & Curse or Gift). Ive got a loot of topics to go and will probably replace / add new ones as they become relevant in my life. Next one: why it never feels like I work enough (but still end up exhausted)
I actually cleaned my "studio" (3 desks with many toys) out in favor to fill everything with comic stuff. Making preparations for everything like planning page count, page format and will make a list of content.
Just wanted to share this photo with you because it got me SO excited to work on the real deal - a printed graphic novel full of ADHD. It's just a fake mock-up to see what forma...
Sketching out some things that happened to me the last few weeks. There is something oddly soothing about knowing that everything that I deem stupid and a failure can be material for a comic. Kind of puts it into perspective - my biggest failures are shared by so many - and maybe not even that big failures.
I guess making the comic is pretty therapeutic to me :) thank yall again fo...

Hey, so, the last few months were awful because Ive overworked myself to the point of not physically being able to stand for longer than a minute (thanks to procrastinating for over half a year)
The good news is IM OFFICIALLY DOING THIS FULLTIME NOW
Im still kind of scared and should be awaiting my clients response before announcing this, but Im super excited! ...

Hey! Still doing overtime at work so another one of these series. I have two "real" comics with panels and such sketched out. I'll get back to making more of those when I stop overtime :). Hopefull a series on medication, too. Might make it patreon exclusive for now, but will have to see.
BTW! The text is place holder and can be very inaccurate at times. Sometimes I have trouble translati...
