I gotta take a minute and explain this whole thing. I started allmyworries.com to build a brand that talks about mental health.

My plan was to create my own clothing designs and open a shop with them. It was not about making money; it was about shining a light on this topic, which is something I deal with personally.

I actually got a lot of encouragement from people around me. They opened up and told me they were in the same spot, and they finally felt seen.

Honestly, I never really launched the project.

I bought the domain and had a hoodie and a T-shirt printed with my logo—just for myself.

Then, the project was on ice for a long time. But I thought the name and the idea were just too good to let that fade away, too.

(I am really good at starting things but not so great at finishing them.)

Everything I made, in my head, was not good enough, and that is why I never went through with it. I wanted cool designs for the clothes, but I had no idea how to get them, and I did not want to pay anyone for them. Since I have a background as a graphic designer, I thought I could do it myself, but...

I am just not good enough at that, either.

Then I decided I wanted to learn how to draw, so I could create my own designs. I wanted to let THE WORLD follow my progress on my Instagram page.

And somehow, it just happened that I started drawing my followers' profile pictures. I also drew some NSFW stuff, since that is the best way to learn body shapes when you are trying to learn how to draw, and I started thinking about the best way and place to share those pictures. So, I also set up a Patreon page for the whole thing, where people can either just drop a small donation or see my NSFW pictures.

Now, all I need is more people following my Instagram so I can keep drawing.

Eventually, I hope to turn this whole thing back into what it was supposed to be, but somehow the drawing feels good for mental health, too - at least for mine.

And the conversations I am having because of it might help the people I am talking to, as well.

So if you are down to check out the whole thing, feel free to give me a follow.
