    I’m an ICU nurse, and my creative hobbies are what keep me from going completely insane, and they’re truly what brings the most meaning and joy to my life. I think this video in particular will resonate with a lot of people. Thank you so much ❤

    Great words Doug, I spent 12 yrs taking care of my husband who had a life changing illness whilst also keeping my full time job. I needed this balance. I introduced my husband to watercolour painting to help with his depression, he enjoyed his new found challenging hobby and I have to say my sketchbook was my happy place. There are many people out there who are amazing caring for loved ones, thank you Doug for raising awareness of carers.

    Art is used as a part of treatment in mental health facilities in the US. It facilitates getting in touch with the subconscious mind. I worked as a Mental Health Nurse for over thirty years and loved it.
