Let me preface this post with the “I’m not a doctor” disclaimer. Because, seriously, I’m not a doctor. I’m more of a theorist.

With the Float Kickstarter launching in a few days on May 1 at 10 AM EST, I’ve started making the rounds for some podcast interviews. I found both of these interviews lovely to do. It was unique for me to speak about my anxiety and my comic book work. I’ve never brought up my battle […]

Anxiety takes over and we see David fully for the first time. He’s dived far into the inner chambers of his mind. David wants to hide from his problems and his pain. He lets Anxiety take control. He thinks Anxiety is a friend but David will learn he’s terribly wrong. You can view all of Float’s […]
After last week’s Float page, David dives inside his mind to escape the pain of his upcoming divorce. Anxiety has cost him another love and another beneficial relationship. His number one defense mechanism is to retreat inward. Amanda, David’s soon-to-be ex-wife, offers some final words of encouragement. Every person has their breaking point.
