Description Based on a backstory of how Mickey Mouse coped with the death of Walt Disney.

Fairly early in the process, Mickey invalidates his own need to grieve to avoid being a burden to others. After all, nobody watches Mickey Mouse to be sad! He's supposed to make people happy! He especially doesn't want to burden his loved ones, who are also grieving.

As a result, Mickey puts up a façade, insisting that he's "fine" or "ok" when he very much is not. Even when it becomes visibly obvious (messy hair & clothes, baggy eyes), he insists the needs of others are more important. Mickey is doing figuratively what the illustration is depicting him do literally; bottling up his grief. 

And to think OMORI of all things served as inspiration for Mickey Mouse art, lol
