Holly Chisholm was diagnosed with depression and ADHD in December of 2016. Her therapist suggested she try journaling. She hates journaling. This comic was her compromise between drawing and journaling; it helped her record how she was feeling and work through some of the darkness. Holly currently live in Mesa, Arizona, with her boyfriend Matt and an ornery cockatiel named Larry.
