I drew this not too long ago. I am currently battling depression and I usually put my feelings into either drawings or poems. It is my way of expressing myself. Well, I did this in Charcoal and it didn't take me very long to do. In fact, it only took me about 5-10 minutes to do, give or take a few minutes. This picture doesn't show a face, but it can be easily told where the head is by the position of the arms and hands. If you have ever been depressed or ever just over thought about a certain topic, you know what this position is. It is something you do to try to clear your head or try to think about something else. My caption for this picture is, "Stop the voices in my head." It was inspired by the song Better Off Dead by Sleeping With Sirens. The chorus says:
Maybe I'm better off dead
If I was, would it finally be enough
To shut out all the voices in my head
Maybe I'm better of dead, better off dead
Did you hear a word, hear a word I said
This is not where I belong
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
The song Better Off Dead is one of my favorite songs and even though it is kinda sad and depressing, it is one of the songs that is helping me get through my depression right now. I recommend it to those who haven't heard it before. Anyway, comment below and tell me what you think about this picture.
