Depression
The Weight of Many Feelings
This illustration represents the emotional weight of depression. Inside the outline of a person’s head, multiple faces appear—each expressing a different emotion: sadness, emptiness, distress, and forced happiness. These overlapping expressions symbolize how someone experiencing depression may carry many feelings at once while still appearing calm or “okay” on the outside.
Eating Disorders
The Battle Within
This drawing illustrates the internal struggle experienced by many people living with eating disorders. The fragmented green shapes and the word “PUKE” represent the harmful cycle that can occur when someone feels pressure to control their body through unhealthy behaviors.
Anxiety
Surrounded by Questions
This illustration captures the overwhelming nature of anxiety. The central figure sits alone while surrounded by dozens of watchful eyes and question marks, representing constant worry, overthinking, and the feeling of being judged or watched.
