Wanted to touch just a little bit more here on the bullying Charlie was faced with when he was 13 as I think it plays a strong part in his later mental health problems. :(

"Mental health problems"? Did I miss something?

I've talked about it a lot on my Tumblr blogs, but yeah, Charlie will develop mental illnesses later in the story. In 'Solitaire', the book that I wrote that Charlie first appears in, he is in the process of recovering from mental illness (mainly anorexia and depression). As Heartstopper takes place before Solitaire, I do intend to explore how these mental health problems develop in the story!

I feel like this super sweet story is on the verge if turning quite dark and I don't know how to deal with this, OMG. I'll be here for all of you, sweeties! No matter what!

Tao’s a good kid. He just wants to protect his friend!

That's sorta what I'm afraid of :') I want the comic to explore more serious topics, but I also want to try as hard as I can to maintain its very positive, warm, loving tone!

nick just realized how hard it had been for charlie, right? but doesn't that make him even more scared of coming out?

...what's Nick thinking...

I hope this doesn't distance Nick from Charlie because of his fears...this is a birthday party...it's supposed to be happy!

Every time you mention Charlie's upcoming mental health issues my heart just drops. Combine that with the dark grey of the flashbacks in the comic itself and it just puts a cloud of worry for the future of the story for me (probably my own anxiety getting the better of me 😉). I'm loving that we get to see this honest conversation with Tao though, that we know the reason behind all those scowls of his. I don't think this overheard conversation is going to persuade Nick to come out any time soon. He has to recognize he'd have support if/when he comes out, or at least, I hope he recognizes that whenever it happens. I just hope there's hugs all round in the upcoming panels! ❤️❤️❤️

All I can say is that I refuse to let the comic turn into just a total downer. I wanna explore these topics while keeping the warmth and love and happiness that I've managed to create so far! :) (And there's definitely some hugs on the horizon)

I don't understand the middle panel. Maybe that's just me?

the one with the table? i think it shows how alone charlie was during that year (or at least that's how i understand it)

Alex

Since I've started reading this comic, I just want to give Charlie hugs
