To lovely humans who were excluded from invitations, left behind when they tied their shoes, forced to walk in the grass when the sidewalk was full, spoken over when you tried to contribute, whispered about or laughed at, given side-eye when you tried to fit in.... you are so worthy of love.

Time is precious. We are all only given a numbered amount of time on this earth. When you give your time to someone, that’s time you’ll never get back. Which is why, when I give of my time, it is a precious gift. I will gift it to those whom I feel are precious to me. I will never not have time for people who are important to me.

you're enough...
...even when you're at your lowest.
nobody needs you to be their superhero the entire time. those who really love you, just need your presence in their lives.
so, just be. however you feel today, someone, somewhere is grateful that you exist ✨

Hey, you! This is your daily reminder to stay alive!
If we lost you, we'd lose all the amazing things you could create, too. Look at your hands. They could be used for so many purposes. Not only harm-- I believe you can make something meaningful. Even if you don't think you can make anything special, I believe you deserve to keep living. I believe you are important. You are important to me.
When my depression was at its worst, I took to creating. I started writing. It wasn't particularly good, but it gave me a reason to keep going. "If I haven't finished my poetry, and I die, my parents will throw it away," I told myself, and I wrote another poem. It wasn't an instant cure, but it got my feelings of gender confusion, depression, and fear out of my brain and onto the page, and it quieted my intrusive thoughts.
Now, I look back on them and see how much it helped me to pull through a really dark time in my life. They aren't masterpieces, but they're a sign I was fighting so hard to give myself purpose-- and it worked. I made things to explain how I felt, and it actually helpd a lot.
Now, I have my comic. People want to learn more, and care about my creations, and so I keep fighting, for all of you.
Seeing you all happy and theorizing and inspired by my creations helps me keep going.
I know not everyone is the creative sort, so this may not be the best coping mechanism for all who see this, but I advise you to at least try. Just take what's inside you and pour it onto the page. If that doesn't help, may I suggest drawing on your arms and legs with sharpie? It helped me deal with SH and get through bad episodes.
I love you platonically.
--Ellis

Hear me out...
I don't know who needs to hear this but hear me out... Whatever situation you're going through in your life, you'll get through it. Belive me! Never ever have bad thoughts or self harm phases PLEASE... I know it takes a lot and lot of courage but talk with your loved ones... Tell them about your problems... Talk with me, if you're feeling very low in your life... Don't you ever ever should think about taking a wrong step which would disrupt the entire lives of your loved ones for forever...
"I would rather have a wounded soldier than a lifeless one".
You're important as much as the other person! ❤️🩹

Hey!!
Just a reminder, but you are IMPORTANT and VALUABLE and LOVED!
Yes, YOU, reading this right now. I may not know you personally, (Although if I do I consider myself most wonderfully blessed and lucky and am very grateful) but I am making the choice to love you
On purpose, right now, I am choosing to love you because you exist and that makes you deserving of kindness
