You are not alone, there are 300 of you 🙂
I think you need to multiply that by about 10 million.
All of us get lost in the darkness;
Dreamers learn to steer by the stars.
All of us do time in the gutter;
Dreamers turn to look at the cars.
Turn around and turn around and turn around.
Turn around and walk the razor’s edge.
Don’t turn your back and slam
The door on me.

(300 is a reference to how many strips have been done so far)
I think about this a lot. So many people like me trapped in a painful sense of isolation, yet it being incredibly difficult to bridge the gap between us.
We’re together alone.
a terrible poetic irony
Yep, we are ultimately all alone out there. Be safe peeps.
That is so meaningful and true. I admire your creativity and I find comfort in your comics.
Du är inte ensam att känna så
This one is so true for me .. If there was a secret signal or a different handshake or something, we might not feel so alone. Support groups are okay, but often depressed people avoid those social situations. All I want is to just have a cup of coffee with someone who gets the real me.
“All the lonely people…”
“Wearing a face that she keeps in a jar by the door” — Sounds like the fake smiles that appear in the comic.
“My life happens to, on occasion, suck beyond the telling of it. Sometimes more than I can handle. And it’s not just mine. Every single person down there is ignoring your pain because they’re too busy with their own”
BFTs, earshot
Spike: Life’s not a song.
Life isn’t bliss.
Life is just this:
It’s living.
You’ll get along.
The pain that you feel
You only can heal
By living.
You have to go on
Living
So one of us is
Living.
Dawn: The hardest thing in this world
Is to live in it.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer S6E7 “Once More With Feeling”
I was just going to write a simple “And we all die alone” but damn, someone else watched Buffy back in the day.
I’m old. I’m going for 40 but I feel like four hundred years. And I’m afraid I can’t even kill myself now properly.
Wow I really wish I would kill myself today, but I know I still won’t. Cheers to this comic. We’re all alone.
I like the way his shirt mirrors the bricks on the wall. As if he is fading into the background.
I was writing about this very thing in my journal this morning.
Thank you, I forgot others feel this way too. It helps to know I’m not alone out there even if it feels like it sometimes.
But everyone’s gotten so good at hiding it that they believe they’re the only one who’s alone.
Yep. But to all of you out there thinking you’re alone….I’m right there with you…and sometimes I feel I’m alone too.
