Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I’m in this comic, and while I have an amazing partner, I still stop myself mid-ramble from time to time because those mean comments still live in the back of my head.

Im thankful my partner reassures me to keep rambling, and I hope the internalizing I’ve done in my dark, formative years become insignificant enough that I no longer second-guess myself one day

Are you my partner? My partner's like this. Sometimes it saddens me to see the struggle.

I don’t think so, but i hope you’re in a good spot with your partner, and that they manage to also get the help that they may need to overcome those internal obstacles while respecting boundaries.

Im slowly working towards being able to afford therapy myself, since while the encouragement greatly helps, there’s also stuff deep down (in my own experience) that I would need to work through to hopefully, eventually overcome my own obstacles.

Lol, of course not. She's not even on Lemmy.

I had to reassure her that things will be alright. Still do sometimes, but she's improved a lot.
