Meet Sherbet the Chameleon with Depression!

Sherbet is an adventurous Chameleon whose favorite sport is go-kart racing! He enjoys going to club racing events and dreams of one day being a Formula 1 racer.

For Sherbet, nothing beats the feeling of adrenaline as he navigates a course at high speeds- sharp turns, sudden breaking, and of course, being the first to cross the finish line!

Sherbet struggles with high-masking depression, putting a brave face and bright colors on when he's at his go-karting club or with friends. However, masking is exhausting and Sherbet will come home and curl up in his bed, losing a lot of his color. Chameleons change colors based on their emotions, which can make it very hard for him to hide how he's feeling in a depressive episode.

Sherbet's friends and therapist are always there for him and remind him that he doesn’t have to hide how he's feeling- it's important to be honest with yourself and others in order to make progress and heal!

Forcing yourself to be colorful is hard! Sherbet serves as a reminder to prioritize rest and rejuvenating so you can continue being the best version of yourself!
