Me externally:

I hide all my scars with long sweaters or dresses.

I at least try to look happy so i don't make anyone mad.

I'm drowning in medications.

Sedatives don't help.

I look insane and stupid visually.

I'm going in circles and the loop never ends.

Me internally:

Rape scars still haven't healed.

I feel so sore all the time.

I feel so scared.

I'm told my body is inherently obcene.

This is what people think I look like.

My shoulders make me a whore?

My clothes make me a slut?

My brain is just... static.

I always stare off into space but I'm told I look stupid.

I'm told I'm "ripe" and "breedable" because I'm 18.

Bro. Imagine crashing out over a BOOK. Dude, this person's actions toward Anton LaVey's book does not mean or affect anything. Unlike religious texts, the satanic bible holds no "supernatural" or "divine power" or "sacred holiness". It is simply a book written by a man meant to inform and teach people about this specific philosophy. It's not the highway to hell or whatever the fuck lol. If you feel the need to throw an egg on a book and think reading a book with curiosity and gaining knowledge about something is going to send you to an imaginary hell, you sure don't seem to be very secure about your beliefs lol. Reminds me of when religious people were enraged when the Harry Potter books and movies came out and they thought they were trying to teach kids about witchcraft lol.

I mainly drew this in honor of men's mental health month in a way to honor them. I found a sewing button on the floor and I felt sad for some reason. I carefully put the button on my nightand and drew this character from it. He is wearing a tuxedo. Part of it is open. He has a wound on his stomach because he had been stabbed. But you see how he still stands tall and he keeps being himself even though it's difficult sometimes. He doesn't put on a face for anyone. He is his pure authentic self with a vast arrangement of emotions he isn't afraid to show. He really likes drinking lavender tea and reading books about different kinds of plants

I kind of look like I'm headbanging to metal ngl 😭

You know what? I think there's always time for a song.
