For once, comics posted by the actual creator. Yay @op.
SpaceBatForever
Awesome! I love this comic! It's great you have an outlet for your depression. I just have endless void of my mind... Please help.
Dosito
haven't laughed so hard at anything so depressing... brava
RetailCat
Let me know if you need anything at all.

Try carpentry- ya get to make a big mess, lots of noise and end up with solid results...for money, fame and glory-if the cheapskates pay ya

Even though I can't relate at all. I still like the comics. Good job!
platecup
Very real feeling content from time-to-time, and a nice style. Hope you have fun doodlin' em! +1

Sometimes I do wish depression would just fuck right off.
Schnerfle
I find these relatable and really wanna give you a hug, but with the dogpile am sure already happened, I'll assume I'm unneeded
JamesFRegan
Hugs are always welcome!
Someguynonottheoneyouthink
Why does the elephant in the room have The X-men's home address on it?
JkStillLurking
Because OP is a giant nerd.
JamesFRegan
This is accurate.
algalon
Jesus, C&H Depressing comic week is a joyride compared with these...
PiGiSpi
Because they don't just stick the word "depression" on a character and make it do mean things. Theirs tend to be actual sadness
algalon
I mean they are well made and I had a bad year and these are relatable.
Hyperrpolice
These are just... reimagined owlturd comics.
mausylaura
I don't know about owlturd. But I've seen the jokes in a dozen other places and forms. I guess #24 was spot on :))
hardlyfatal
Or maybe lots of people are having the same experiences they choose to draw/write about?
mausylaura
Sure, it's possible :)
OhHiMarkOhHeyLisaHiDannyHiMiUnderwearesOhHeyLisaSpooooons
Thats exactly what i was going to say. Its got the same characters even

As someone with depression, all of these hit close to home. It's so hard to get anything accomplished some days. Stay strong :) <3
mekkuli
But what if you are not depressed anymore next year and stop making the comic? That's a really depressing thought!
JamesFRegan
I guess if that happens you'll just get a lot more incredibly stupid jokes!
MrHazard
that first one made me take a look at my cacti, even before I saw the last panel. they're alright, haven't watered them since January.
Sacurason
I really dig the surprisingly optimistic ones :p
JamesFRegan
I try to mix it up. Oddly enough the optimistic ones are usually made when I'm doing the worst, ha.
Miridarna
That isn't surprising, actually - I'm much the same way. Hope you're holding up, and I adore your work @OP
JamesFRegan
Thank you! Hope you're doing well also!

Not sure how any of this is romanticizing mental illness.

Nope, just a bunch of people wallowing and circle jerking about how depressed they are.
AlmightyElephant
The key to comedy is to write what you know. Unfortunately for our generation, that means the rise in crippling depression and anxiety.
DiabloGrandeArts
I just started an action/adventure webcomic with magical demons and obnoxiously-attractive Fantasy-Middle-Eastern men. You down?
Coolbacca
Nah, they all retired decades ago (god how I miss Farside and C&Hs)
