It was really hard to put it into words, so I decided to draw it... I hope this makes some sense.
I feel like my mental health problems are a large figure that are constantly standing behind me, pressed up against my back with their hands around my throat - like I am being controlled and suffocated by these feelings and emotions. The words and cuts in black show the aspects of myself that are under the influence of anxiety and depression. I've drawn myself in grey to symbolise the colour and life being drained out of me; the more that the colour leaves me, the darker and bigger the personified depression gets.
I'm seeing my nurse and nutritionist tomorrow, so hopefully things will start looking up soon.
