“I express myself with color as a way of managing my mental health; it’s not just a job or an interest, it’s part of my self-care routine and keeps me grounded when the dark storms in my head threatened to carry me away,” the artist shared with Bored Panda and added that her husband pushed her to start painting again.

If you scroll through her Instagram page you will see colorful portraits, because as she says, she finds faces and the way they portray emotions so captivating.

“Eyes truly are the windows to the soul. I also love painting with color, which is ironic really seeing as I am often plagued by the darkness of depression. But being creative really helps me and together with a host of other coping mechanisms the foggy days are becoming more bearable,” she wrote on her personal website.

Addie told Bored Panda that she’s been dealing with mental health issues for about ten years now. In 2019, after many ups and downs, she decided to open this online diary on Instagram and talk about this problem. She creates interesting gifs to put a smile on people’s faces and to inspire them to never give up.

“We’ve been told for years now that social media isn’t good for our mental health, which can be true, of course. But this whole world of social media and Instagram is filled with endless content and personalities, and we GET to choose who we want and who we don’t want to follow”, the artist told Bored Panda, adding that we don’t have to avoid our phone altogether to feel better. Instead, we can choose to fill it with positive, uplifting, and inspiring content.

Luckily, artists such as Tim, otherwise known as iamsitting on Instagram, are helping shed light on this issue.

Using simple and minimalist comics, Tim is being brave sharing his mental health struggles over the past few years. This includes everything from his struggles with anxiety and depression, as well as anything else in between.

What’s even more amazing about what Tim is doing is that he is the first to claim that he was never an artist. But, because of his drive to share more about his mental health struggles, he’s since started drawing minimalist comics tackling other issues he constantly struggles against, such as his indecisiveness, insomnia, paranoia, and so on.

These types of content are important because it resonates with a society that’s become more attuned with their emotional selves.
