Depression Drawings Novels & Stories

Remembering shouldn't be hard but expressing it will be. I think about the various things I have seen in my lifespan. Blood, bullets, pills, dead bodies. I could go on. Most of them aren't really suitable for this environment and explaining it will be impossible. What can I use? There's really nothing I can use that isn't somehow related to my past. Looking over at what Abe's doing, I see that he's drawing I think a scene of trees. Abe draws with these really thin and long lines, which makes his sketch look a lot like an animal's pelt. But I think that's what it is. And there's an outline of mountains in the background. Is that...Lonewood?

Deirdre's entire body froze as she glanced at the drawing on the paper. The artwork depicted a mother holding a boy's hand, capturing the mother's tenderness and the child's longing despite its simplicity. A sudden tightness gripped Deirdre's heart. 'Could this be a tribute to his mother?' As Sean heard the noise, he looked up and quickly hid his drawing, his face filled with embarrassment. Deirdre tried to regain her composure, but her mind was in turmoil.

"I understand families have private matters. But Mr. Blackwood, with all due respect, Junior needs professional support. Such drastic behavioral changes, especially at his age, can indicate serious emotional distress." "What do you suggest?" "A child psychologist. Someone who can help Junior process whatever he's going through. I have some referrals if you'd like." Daniel opened his laptop, his fingers already typing. "Send me their names and contacts. I'll arrange an appointment as soon as possible." "Thank you, Mr. Blackwood. And one more thing." "Yes?" "During craft time today, Junior drew pictures. Usually he draws robots or superheroes. But today..." Miss Stevens hesitated. "He drew cry

Whatever happened last night, all the crying and refusing to eat, waved past his head like it never happened — he had forgotten about everything that happened yesterday, at least pretended to so he would not spoil his happiness. Right there on the wooden table was an A4 with a sketch of David's face. Every feature and every detail were measured beautifully correctly — it was so perfect and realistic, and the artist himself could not stop smiling at his own work. Travis smiled and laughed as if he had seen something funny, and interesting. It was indeed interesting to watch his work — a drawing that he started last night when he had decided to find something to distract his poisonous thoughts

It’s funny to watch their ego take a dive when a girl knows more than they do about cars. Today we are doing self portraits with charcoal. I put my AirPods in and get engulfed in what I am doing. Art is the only thing I can be emotionally honest in. I put all my sadness into my work, but this time it’s like my hand doesn’t want to listen to me. I find myself drawing the wolf I had seen in my backyard with me laying on it’s chest. For some reason I have drawn myself asleep and I look peaceful for a change. The wolf’s eyes stare at me from the page, piercing into my soul.

'Okay, let me rephrase the question, why is it that most of your drawings have a sad touch to them? I shrugged again. 'Sad Art have the ability to elicit deep response to them. A sad poem, a sad movie, a sad drawing, they always elicit a very deep emotions from humans. Isn't that the whole idea of Art?' He was looking at me as if I had grown two heads, then he patted my shoulders. It was then we heard the bell signifying the end of the class. My mates trudged out and I was the last person to leave. When I was about to step out, Mr Adisa called my name

He couldn't tell others how he felt, so he could only vent his emotions by painting. However, every time he finished drawing, he felt that the paintings arose out of his real mood. The emotions in the paintings were so intense, which made him have a nervous breakdown and become more and more depressed. Therefore, he could only destroy those paintings after he finished drawing. He lied to himself that he had never painted those things, and he had never been so desperate. What was even more ridiculous was that after he destroyed those paintings, he would continue to draw new paintings, because he didn't know what else he could do except for painting.

He needed artwork for a competition the next month. I refused. So she broke my hand to make Asher feel better. "Wilde, what's more important? A hand or a life? Do you even understand that Asher has depression?" From then on, Asher became a permanent part of our lives. Every holiday. Every birthday. Every anniversary. Every Christmas. He always had a reason to call her away. Even on the anniversary of my father's death, one phone call from Asher was enough for Mara to leave without looking back.

I flipped the switch, light flooding across the room in warm yellow beams. I walked to my board, fingertips trailing over the pinned sketches. Tears welled up again, slipping down my cheeks silently as I reached for a blank sheet of paper. I pinned it to the board and picked up a charcoal pencil. My hand trembled for a moment before it steadied, the weight of it grounding me. I closed my eyes, letting the grief and anger and betrayal flood through me. I let myself feel every cut, every bruise, every moment of humiliation. And then, I began to draw.

Every free moment, he scribbled into his notebook, as if trying to remember something his brain refused to let go of. The drawings got worse. At first, they were crude—crayon lines of a tall house with crooked towers. But soon, each page was darker, more detailed. The boy no longer used colors, only black and red. Blood dripped from every window. A woman stood in the attic, her mouth open in a scream. Her eyes were hollow. The teacher called his name again. "Matthew? What are you drawing?" He didn’t look up. His hand moved quickly across the paper, sketching what looked like a spiral staircase leading into a pit. The teacher reached out and gently touched his shoulder.
