I haven't mentioned this much, but some of the hugest reasons I hated being around people was because I'm much more ….or should I say instead; less resilient and more empathetic? Because I would feel every word, sting and argument, even if it wasn't directed to me… it was painful to be around people I knew and even some strangers, because of the extra stress it gives way after the situation was done. I constantly had my mistakes and inhibitions repeated in my head by every voice except my own.. It got to the point where I couldn't even do anything for my comic due to this.
But one day; I went to the park near the office; one my family went to before and later I was taken there by uncle and auntie many more times (with others, of course…). Remembering them and similarly what I CAN do when alone and far from them was empowering. I could feel a weight lift off me one day, and this peace affected others too…
People noticed the calmness and I (unfortunately) caught the eyes of lonely and depressed people who basically cried out their life stories to me. Luckily I already had a comic buffer so that used time wasn't hurting my schedule: I still had plenty of comics to upload even if I didn't get a chance to finish the current chapter (I needed sleep, so after a certain hour: no more comics..) Plus, Rottweiler-Comics didn't notice me yet and so I didn't have to post everyday…………
