These works both tell stories related to struggles with mental health, and how those struggles can feel for individuals living with anxiety or depression. “Mr. Blue” is meant to reflect how depression can make an individual feel like a ghost of themselves. It also shows the effects of untreated mental illness over time, with the figure becoming more and more overwhelmed by depression. “Anxiety” is meant to illustrate what it’s like inside the mind of someone who lives with anxiety. Specifically, the constant internal conflict of making the right decision, when ultimately it feels like there is no true solution to the problem being faced.
