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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

MODERATORS
You'll google "inpatient mental health treatment near me," realize none of the options your insurance covers are all that good and you can't really afford to take that much time off work anyway, and close the window. (Assuming you're American, and probably need to get your meds adjusted.)
It's very hard to get psychiatric help covered by insurance/healthcare in Europe too unfortunately.
As for getting time off work, have you looked into FMLA? I'm unsure what goes into eligibility but if you qualify, your employer is required to allow up to 6 months leave each year for any short term disability including mental health and burnout.
You might or might not get your full salary (assuming you are salaried) during this time, but it will keep your job secure as long as you document ongoing care with your employer's disability provider.
