Holly Chisholm was diagnosed with depression and ADHD in December of 2016. Her therapist suggested she try journaling. She hated journaling. Creating Just Peachy Comics was her compromise between drawing and journaling; it helped her record how she was feeling and work through some of the darkness. By sharing her comics, Holly realized she wasn't alone in her struggle with mental health, and was encouraged to keep making and sharing this material--this is a journal she'd actually have used during her own journey. Holly currently live in Mesa, Arizona, with her boyfriend Matt, two dwarf hamsters, Bubbles the Boston Terrier, and an ornery cockatiel named Larry.
