Depression and anxiety disorders are real illnesses. Mental illnesses are not "in someone's head," they're not something a person can "just get over," and they affect so many of us — over 40 million people in the U.S. alone.
Despite how common they are, it's still really difficult to explain to people who may have never experienced a mental illness.
Here's a comic strip on the subject by Nik Seluk on the subject. Using cute illustrations, Nick describes exactly the conditions experienced by so many people around the world. I al also one of them.
I loved this comic strip. Thank you Nick !
