Description
I decided to draw Artyom with bandages that all represent the abuse I've dealt with in my life, but slightly different.
The bandages aren't in areas I received the abuse, since the large majority of it has been mental.
Instead, it's a combination of what others have done to me and mainly what I've done to myself.

I'm now able to start a road to recovery. While I may not have a therapist until I can move out, I know I have friends here that will always be there for me when my family and IRL 'friends' won't.

I'm proud of myself. I'm proud that I am able to finally let everything out in positive ways, instead of ways that hurt me.
I'm glad that after 5 years, I'm able to be happy about myself.

P.S:
Photos of animals are always welcome in my DMs. :]
