This is my comic entitled “Don’t Judge”, it’s pretty simple, but very true. Every day tasks are not as simple for a person with a mental illness, and yet more often than not we are regularly required to perform at the same level as those without a disability. I congratulate myself every time I get my dishes done, know that the task was as difficult for me, as a mountain hike would be for others.
A comic about OCD I made a while ago. It’s quite trite, but I was trying to make something ‘proper’ and 'mainstream' that wasn’t just my usual load of muscles and screaming.

This is a page from a comic created after a blood transfusion, After the making of this story I was diagnosed with a from of cancer called Zollenger Ellison Syndrome. It is a slow growing and hard to kill form of cancer I have been living with for almost four years now. I hope you enjoy the comic.
