Some how, Saturday just doesn't feel the same as it used to.

“I have no idea how to post about this but I feel like I should.

We are living through a global pandemic. Life has changed in ways nobody predicted and we couldn’t have imagined even at the start of 2020.

Many of us have been ill. Far too many have lost loved ones. We have not been able to seek the comfort of spending time with those we love.

At the start of 2020 my mental health was likely already on a shoogly peg and the massive increase in workload coupled with trying to be a perfect parent, on the back of three general elections and the mess that is Brexit meant I needed a break so badly to recover from it all.

I don’t have a job where it’s possible to take time off. At least without feeling guilty. I have been working full time since I was 19 and I’ve never been signed off.

This summer I have needed that time. I have been so grateful for the support from the SNP Westminster team, from our First Minister, from politicians of all parties, from my wonderful staff and from so many constituents.

It is unusual for a politician, or anyone in the public eye, to talk about their mental health issues. Only a break and antidepressants has got me to this level of recovery.

The worst thing was the lack of energy. Some days I couldn’t find the energy to get off the sofa. I felt so sad and worried all of the time. Eventually I was diagnosed with moderate depression.

I’ve also been more introverted than ever before. I usually love the company of others but I’ve found it so tiring to spend time with people this summer.

I’m not yet better. I am much better than I was but not back to my usual enthusiastic, optimistic self. Recovery is a really slow process, especially in the midst of a pandemic.

If you’re in the same situation I am, or in a worse place, please keep working with your medical professionals. If your antidepressants are not working or are causing side effects, go back to your GP who can prescribe an alternative.

This is a long road for all of us. Please know that you are not alone. It is okay to not be okay.”-Kristy Blackman.

Acest episod e contribuția mea la un jurnal de bandă desenată inspirată din viața cotidiană a unui artist de comics în perioada pandemiei - viața altfel în 2020!  Proiectul se numește Colportorul de bandă desenată, include mai mulți artiști români și este inițiat de  Asociația Jumătatea Plină în colaborare cu Goethe Institute București. Puteți citi toate benzile desenate aici: @goethe_institut_bucuresti. This work is my contribution to a diary about the daily life of comic artists during the anti-pandemic restrictive measures. Back in March we would avoid going out at all costs, and things were getting a bit claustrophobic. This is inspired by real events. The projects is called "Colportorul de bandă desenată" and involves many artists.  It was initiated by Jumătatea Plină  and the Goethe Institute Bucharest, and you can read more comics here: @goethe_institut_bucuresti . . . #ileanasurducan #artistofinstagram #colportoruldebandădesenată #benzidesenate #comics #antipandemic #lifeduringcorona #lifeinisolation #viatainizolare #stayhome #staysafe #stamacasa #pandemicmeasures #digitalartwork #kittens #cute #comicsdiary https://www.instagram.com/p/CDvcv2EpIST/?igshid=1whr2c48lfbce

Reuben, the cat from our neighbors Peter and Sarah got a little brother (Felix). I started working on this personal project documenting life during the pandemic in my neighborhood. It’s been one part creative outlet, one part documenting life in my neighborhood, and one part mental health break, I lost count of how many parts that was. Good thing I’m not an accountant. . . #cats #personalprojects #photoprojects #animallover #licensablecontent #animalphotographer #catsandkittens #catsanddogs #lifeduringcorona #wfhcat #furrycoworkers #kittensofinstagram #2020projects #lifestylephotographer #studiophotographer #profoto #sonycameras #profotousa (at Salt Lake City, Utah) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_-MuT0AlGu/?igshid=dn0oulo80ry1

This is slightly exaggerated, but you all know what im talking about... . ...on the flip side, she has to deal with my “noises” 😅 💨 . Ok, so I jest, but with all this craziness, everyone please take care of yourselves and each other! 💕 This is a true test of patience and commitment to our communities. Hats off to SF Bay cities for the shelter-in-place mandate, trying to do their best to keep us all safe. And thank you essential store workers for going out there everyday to provide for us! Stay inside, wash hands, don’t touch your face (so hard!), and be kind to each other (and the planet) during this weird time 😷🧼 🏠 . . . . #sketch #comics #corona #lifeduringcorona #truetestofrelationships #funny #artistsoninstagram #instaart #storyartist #storyboards #storypanel #life #covıd19 https://www.instagram.com/p/B93Z9Q4Dlz8/?igshid=18tj5hve5b4hu

It’s a TumblrTour. Certainly not a Magical tour. But if you don’t watch it, it will always be a Mystery Tour. So step right this way ...

Benson and Ross are the two puppies that live across the street at Mike and Cayla’s place. While documenting my neighborhood’s WFH I’ve also gotten to know most of the pets that my neighbors have living with them, and helping them cope with distancing rules. . . #greatpyrenees #dogs #doglife #personalprojects #photoprojects #animallover #licensablecontent #animalphotographer #catsanddogs #lifeduringcorona #wfhdogs #furrycoworkers #dogslife #2020projects #lifestylephotographer #studiophotographer #profoto #sonycameras #profotousa #caturdayvibes #mentalhealthawareness #mentalidad #staycreative #staycreativeathome #justshoot #newfoundlanddog (at Salt Lake City, Utah) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAF8me3gbbN/?igshid=twls1ncvin6p
