liar liar, pills on fire 5x5 mini art print

High quality art print of an original oil pastel drawing

Printed on 5x5inch high quality matte paper

like all art, it is up to your interpretation and whatever this drawing means to you, im just glad it resonates.
for me creating this, it was a tribute to all the medications was prescribed for years and years, with the false hope that they would be able to effectively heal me. for nearly a decade of my life i cycled through countless antidepressants, ssris, snris, maois, whatever the doctors felt like prescribing as i slowly ran out of options after each trial and failure. at best, they didn’t help, and and worst, several of them came with intense and life-altering side effects. the three pills i drew here were inspired by the three that hurt me the most. around summer 2022, i experienced painful withdrawal symptoms for months trying to get off of a medication, and i told myself i had to try a different method. i looked within and healed myself by doing the work, changing my life, addressing the roots of my issues and negative mindsets, and worked though them, rather than just trying to numb them with another drug. gradually i became happier and more healed than i ever thought was possible for me, and it has gotten me to where i am today. I AM NOT ANTI-MEDICINE, but for me, these prescriptions weren’t the answer, so in this drawing, i’m sending them up in flames.
