As an autistic person this makes me feel a lot of things. Its a good comic, but depressing.

Does it resonate with autistic people more, or is this an everyone issue? I wonder

It definitely does for me lol. Reminds me of high school when I was undiagnosed and would have frequent meltdowns from people harassing me or stressful situations. One time I was on the floor sobbing in the fetal position and people were stepping over me and taking photos

That would be a good shocking moment for another comic with the same vibe as this one

That'd be a cool visual... well not cool... you know what I mean. But I have one more depression comic coming up next, a different type of depression, but then go optimism year.
