“How I Survived My 40-Year-Old Thing” is a raw and deeply personal graphic story that chronicles my emotional journey after moving to Germany.
Faced with the daunting task of detaching from my home, family, and identity, I found myself struggling with mental health and a sense of loss. This story is a reflection of how, at 39, I began to heal by confronting my pain through creativity.
The graphic story became the first powerful expression of that healing process, offering readers an intimate look at resilience and self-discovery.
