who faints at the sight of blood.
And her name is Citronella.

Everyone struggles with something and there’s no shame in asking for help.
This group of misfits have found connection with each other by sharing what’s bugging them. From fainting at the sight of blood to coffee addiction to depression, anxiety, OCD, co-dependency and delusions of grandeur, these bugs have struggles. But, they also have each other.
