These characters are more then just drawings to me, and I know they are to others. But you also cannot lay your own mental health on them. It’s not fair to yourself or the character. It’s a lesson I’ve learned and I feel like it’s advice worth giving. You are real, the character is not.

Recently I’ve reached some lows I didn’t think possible due to my dependence on my projects. It’s given me a lot of perspective. It’s just best to keep a personal distance. I say this because I just see a lot of people make things too real to them. Just love yourself more than a character! ❤️
