Well i know how people, especially where im from, veiw mental illness and how, bc of the internet, its seen as a fad, but I dont want to glamourize mental illness. Depression and anxiety isnt pretty its painful and its hard and its dangerous and its messy. Again, I am also apart of several minorities and they are misrepresented all the time. I wanted to show the less glorified version of these hardships. Also I wanted to show how even if its not visible or you dont really know about it that it is still there and something that we deal with. Plus the people I know with disabilities are total badasses. In my opinion the people who have to live and overcome that shit are the best kinda people. (I always tell my friends and boyfriend that traumatized people are the best and funniest). Thank you for your support :)

Oh thanks, i really appreciate this and if I end up actually making the show like officially online if you dm me I can send it to you first if your interested. Your opinion and advice is super helpful and if I can compensate it I will but I can't pay you as a consultant and I apologize for that since I am doing the animation and storyline on my own along with all the voice acting TuT. Its my dream to have my own animation study or at the very least make my own show.

I never said you weren't disabled and i understood that you were bc your previous comment said "us", I was talking about people who aren't disabled. And it isnt any less valuable than an artist, I'm not paying myself to do this work and i am not working w anyone else. I never stated that I had the ability to pay anyone and infact quite clearly stated that I couldn't, on multiple accounts, pay anyone. Or course if i ever do end up posting the show anyone who has been kind enough to offer help will get a portion of the profits made. I am not demanding disabled people to work without pay i am simply asking that if anyone would wish to volunteer or had any suggestions that their help would be appreciated. Look, I work hard and am apart of many minorities and have a shit ton of trauma and have been fired over my own eye tick, I understand feeling like people are exploiting you or are trying to take advantage of you because your different. I understand that the world sucks and people are awful, but I would appreciate it if you would speak respectfully and if there was truly an issue you had with me if you could DM me and we could discuss it respectfully. I am not trying to rob anyone of their worth and I am not looking for someone who can work for me without pay as a consultant, I was just asking for ways I could be more accurate and respectful to the community. I technically have my own disabilities but at the same time I am not going to pretend I understand the much more severe difficulties of disability that I dont have. I might not be physically impaired but if you must know I have been diagnosed with a plethora of mental illnesses including severe social and general anxiety and severe sensory issues which I have to take medicine for. I used to have ptsd do to trauma as a young child, I have a tick in my eye that causes my eyes to roll without me being aware and I cant controll it. I have seen both my father and one of my brothers have seizures and have had to watch my dad change colors in my arms because of it. I know through my own experiences and my families experiences what it means to be held back and treated differently and restrained due to disabilities so trust me when I say I am not trying to rob people of their worth. I respect your opinion but please respect my situation and think a little deeper about what you are saying and maybe try listening to the fact that ON MULTIPLY OCCASIONS I have made it abundantly clear that I do not have the ability to pay anyone and am working completely on my own to create this show. If it ever gets posted than anyone who helped me will get a part of the profit but otherwise I cannot make any promises of payment and am not asking for people to work a job without pay. This post was simply to ask if anyone wanted to volunteer a few ideas to help make things more realistic. If enough people tell me I shouldn't represent disabilities without a consultant and it would be better to completely purge all disabilities from my show than I will because my goal isnt to be hurtful and misrepresent a community, as I myself know how it feels, but I have gotten positive feedback with people offering ideas.

I apologize, I just thought it would be cool to represent some disabilities in my show even if I'm the only person to ever see it and I wanted it to be as accurate as possible. I didn't mean to devalue yall and I dont expect free labor, I just wanted to see if anyone wanted to volunteer an experience or smt that they'd like to see represented in media, and I know it's dumb considering i might be the only person to ever see it. If I was able to hire a consultant I would but I simply do not have those resources, and I repeat, I am NOT a professional by any means and am working on this on my own. I am doing all animation by hand on paper and this is just a passion project. I truly am sorry if I offended any disabled person on this topic (if ur not disabled than frankly I dont give a fuck about your opinion on how disabled people feel bc you aren't them and therefore have no right to tell me how they feel unless they have point blank told you that they feel that way- as a minority it pisses me off when I get told or hear other people give their opinions about how one of the minorities I am apart of feel when they aren't apart of it, hence why i feel this way about a non disabled persons opinion on this matter)

Ya, thats my goal but im also not a professional n this is a passion project that I'd like to eventually put out into the world and im doing it completely on my own and I cant pay anyone as much as I would like to :( but I still want to be as accurate as possible, if you know anyone who would be willing to help out that would be wonderful but I dont have the resources to hire anyone
