The image is a two-panel cartoon illustration that contrasts untreated ADHD with its impact on depression. The left panel, titled "How untreated ADHD," features a character with antennae, depicted in various scenarios. The character is shown struggling with chores, planning, and maintaining focus. The text describes the character's efforts to keep up with tasks, planning excessively, becoming interested in topics, and trying to help others, but ultimately failing to sustain these efforts.

The right panel, titled "Causes and traps you in Depression," shows the same character in a state of frustration and despair. The character is depicted in a messy room, overwhelmed by tasks, and unable to prioritize. The text highlights the character's struggles with depression, including feeling like they always end up in a mess, being overwhelmed, and not being acknowledged for their skills. The character is also shown feeling discouraged from being themselves due to being too much for others.

The background colors are pink for the left panel and blue for the right panel, with arrows indicating the progression from untreated ADHD to depression. The image is designed to visually represent the challenges faced by individuals with untreated ADHD and how these challenges can lead to depression.
