Description
This piece was made to elaborate how I feel struggling with borderline personality disorder in a beautiful way. When you have this disorder, you're always on the borderline of another emotion. It can be very destructive, with a lot of anger problems, self image flips, suicidal ideation, chronic feelings of emptiness, and impulsive behavior. I suppose I just wanted to represent it in a pretty way, because even if someone can be both day and night, they still deserve to be loved and cared for.Related content

Like I said earlier on another post. Powerful. I can relate to this very much. Sometimes I image myself as, for example, standing around at a party or business meeting with a lot of people blissfully chatting away about this or that, and I'm freaking out because I can see that the building is burning and the ceiling is about to collapse on us all and no one else is noticing! Makes me wonder, are they blind, stupid? Am I overreacting? What the hell is actually happening? My face looks sort of like this in that image. Fortunately, (???) I know mental illness runs in the family and my doc has me on very mild medication that helps me not freak out.
So, maybe a commission of that or a similar image? Or maybe something happy. I know you can do happy, I've seen a few pieces that are happy. Might be nice for both of us. I'll go re-read what you posted earlier about commissions.Β Β

Thank you so much for this comment. Thank you for relating to something I feel, thank you for being strong enough to tell me about what you've been through. Mental health is something I've struggled with for a bit of time-- i'm only 18 so I haven't really had too much time to experience the hell this is-- but even for the two years i've had my serious mental illness, its completely broken me piece by piece and restructured what i think life is, and how i relate to people. Mental illness is terrible, it really destroys you inside, and I think that people don't and won't understand what its like unless they experience it. i still make art in vain hopes that i can encapsulate the pain into a beautiful piece of art that everyone can understand, because i think its incredibly important to relate what you've said and what you feel into a piece of art that can grasp what its like to suffer through this terrible infliction. I have severe anxiety disorders (GAD, agoraphobia, panic disorder, PTSD), severe melancholic depression, borderline and OCD and its really a hell to live with. but your Β comment makes all of this pain worth it because i know i can touch and help people who've experienced this pain, and taking away some of your agony makes my own worth it, truly. thank you so much for this comment, and i really look forward to getting a commission from you.
