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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Truly spoken like someone so privileged with good health they don't even know what a chronic disability is.
Imagine being this ignorant about chronic pain that you think it's a product of moral failure. Imagine thinking that doctors treat chronic pain sufferers like anything but drug seekers. Imagine picking up a prescription is so easy you never had to see your pharmacist give you a dirty look or even deny you medications because they think you don't 'look like you're in pain'.
Nothing makes us want to kill ourselves more than hearing the 'just diet and exercise duh' people pretend to know what a fraction of being in pain every living second is like.
