Confessions of a Depressed Writer

Confessions of a Depressed Writer
in this brutally honest and darkly funny video essay, I unpack the uncomfortable truth that I’ve spent years using writing as a coping mechanism for depression—only to realize I’ve become the exact cliché I always mocked: the tortured artist. This isn’t a glamorized portrayal of mental health struggles. It’s a raw, self-deprecating look at how writing can both save you and trap you.

If you've ever written through the pain, used art to survive, or rolled your eyes at yet another “depressed creative” stereotype (before realizing it’s you), this one’s for you.
