Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It's not going to be a fix for everyone, but if you feel like this guy, you should check to see if you've got the rare form of the MTHFR Gene, which means you'll be up to 80% deficient of methylfolate.
Methylfolate is what our body turns folic acid into. It's a base element that our bodies use to function properly. If you've got an extreme deficiency, well, things just aren't functioning properly. People affected with this will have lived with these issues their whole lives.
Now, up to 60% of the population has a mild form of MTHFR, so the gene itself isn't uncommon, it's the rare form you'll be looking for.
Anyway, getting on a high dose of methylfolate changed my life, life from night to day, I'm not kidding. I still take medication for anxiety and depression, but the methylfolate helps them to function like they're supposed to.
Again, it's not a fix for everyone, but on the off chance you have it, I'd check it out.
Ah, you mean one of the many genetic/biochemical abnormalities which are heavily associated with ADHD/MDD/Schizophrenia/Bipolar/Parkinson's/Alzheimer's/etc., sweet... it can join TAAR1, SORCS3, ST3GAL3, DRD4, DRD5, rs4680, rs6265, FXS... I think that's enough "let's see what kind of fucked up genetics can cause your mental disorders" lol
