My Own Worst Enemy

Dotwork Pen and Ink Illustration for Mental Health Awareness. This drawing was inspired by my mental health struggles. The meaning behind this piece: Sometimes it feels as though you’re constantly battling with your mind, to the point where it’s as if your mind is trying to destroy you. I tried to capture this in my drawing. I tried to capture this in my illustration. I try to use drawing as a way to reflect. There’s still a massive stigma around mental health and that’s why I rarely talk about my struggles. But I hope opening up will help others realise it’s ok to talk about it. If you’re struggling I want you to know, you are not a burden, you are stronger than you think, you are loved endlessly. Try to remember to be kind to others, they may be fighting their own battles that we cannot see.
