Lost a kitty last night </3 I’ll miss him. such bizarre timing. he’s not the one featured in the comic.

found out about this problem through two wonderful artists here. (pelko and eal_likee) here’s my take.

inspired to share my story because of artbymoga’s work. happy mental health awareness month

time for a silly collection after the serious one 🦇🦇

from my “castle” series 🖤

this is Pip my batsona!!

here’s a little project i’ve been working on… I’m building myself a big castle to live in during my nights where i’m alone due to my narcolepsy only letting me be fully awake at the hours where everyone else is sleeping

i love collecting dolls and plushies to sleep with / comfort me during nights since narcolepsy tends to make sleep terrifying with all the nightmares and hallucinations, so I wanted them to inhabit the castle

i always feel upset being left alone at night, so of course my narcolepsy only lets me be awake at night. this is what i’m doing to comfort myself

thank you for reading 🖤

for my N2 and IH friends: you belong here too, just subtract cataplexy from the equation

edit: made a posting mistake with illustration 1.. i’ll post the correct one on my page when it’s not 3am. i posted an earlier version, it just has a coloring mistake and less bright face. whoops, thanks sleep deprivation

i feel so alone at night but they’re always there for me.. 🖤

edit:

this is a part of my castle series, the series i’ve been doing to cope with my narcolepsy and mental illness. i don’t do well at night and end up alone a lot, and my narcolepsy tends to only let me be awake at night when everyone else is sleeping. this is how i’m comforting myself during the nights where i’m struggling
