this is such a personal artwork for me, but I still want to share it with someone so yeah
for about 3 years already I can't get right diagnosis because medicine(especially psychiatry) use a very old methods in my country, and also I live in small city
because of this I can't find a really good doctor who prescribe the correct treatment for me
in this work I wanted to try describe my state with art, and I think its quite successful
I used a hare in this work as a metaphor to PTSD because you're in the same constant state of flight and anxiety as a hare, and I hope that doesn't come off as too stereotypical or anything, that's just how it feels to me
AND SORRY FOR LONG TEXT LOL just wanted to share some of my biography👍thanks for reading and I hope for someone is relatable

It’s really frustrating when something is clearly wrong and the doctors you’ve got access to just can’t figure it out. I hope one day things improve for you
