A personal comic about undiagnosed autism, loneliness, and plurality, three things that have affected my life a lot. This is mostly about my experiences when I was the main host. I did not have very healthy relationships with my headmates for a long time. I have recently been trying to come to terms with everything, it just has been hard, but I am grateful for their support even though I can be a little cold to them at times..

Expressing emotions has always been weird for me. I feel like I might overcompensate online and/or through my art to make up for how much I repress/have repressed in real life. I've journalled, I've wrote poetry, we have tons and tons of hurt/comfort of our object OCs as well, haha. And of course, we draw. We have been drawing consistently for years, and it has been a big part of our system journey as well. We have art going all the way back to when Kcarson (the orange dragon in the picture,) was discovered. (Disclaimer: he was not an orange dragon when he was discovered. Also "discovered" just feels like a weird word to use? I feel like "met" works better. I met him. I didn't find him in some cave somewhere. I met him. If anything, he discovered me!)

I hope this maybe resonates with somebody, but if it doesn't, that is okay too. I kind of just wanted to make art and express myself... Because, again, this is how I do it!

plenty love,

Rhino =)
