COMIC: I Want to Live

I drew this comic the day Robin Williams died, it just pushed itself out of me fully formed and it's still the comic I'm most proud of to this day.

I had a similar moment in my life when I was reading The Fault In Our Stars. When Hazel says that she's a grenade, it finally hit me that I was one too. And that if I went out like that, I would hurt so many people. I realized that I couldn't do that to the people I love. But I 100% understand the wanting a button to disappear. I've always been scared to die, but at the same time, never really wanted to be alive either. I'm happy to be alive now, but that journey is hard. Thank you for sharing this.

2022-11-10 21:23:04 +0000 UTCI’m curious, has your perspective on Robin Williams’ death changed at all since his family came forward and revealed that the root cause of his death was Lewy Body Dementia?
