We all go through dark times and have darker sides of ourselves, and we might try to hide them away behind a gleaming smile. But somehow these darker thoughts always manage to come back and play with our minds. No matter how bright a person appears to be, he/she must have had some kind of gloomy experience at least once in their lives.
However, we’re sometimes hardwired to the negativity. It gets hard to untangle the thoughts that warp up in the mind. Perceptions play a major role here, perceiving something in a different dimension might help us eliminate the negative aspect of a situation. This might also help us form a personality that seeks positivity, over the longer run.
Below are some comics made by an artist known as Sandserif, which truly depicts the darker sides of human personality just in a lighter way. How it feels like to be hit by anxiety, how fear overcomes, how insecurities hit you hard, and how despair actually engulfs you. Many of us can relate to these situations. Scroll down and check out these comics! We hope these help you out as well!
