#10 - Headcanon - Confidence

-...-

Mike has very little confidence in himself and suffers from depression and anxiety. A couple times a week he closes himself up In his head, unable to stop thinking terrible things like "you're never going to be someone special" and "you have no talent" and "nobody really truly loves you".
Tyler and Onity have been with Mike long enough to realize when this is happening and comfort him as best they can, cuddling him and telling him about how much he means to them and how he is an amazing person. They're pretty much the only people who can keep him level headed and give him the confidence needed to go to work every day and pay bills and take a break when needed.
They are the reason he gives himself goals like save enough money to help send Tyler to college or to have some extra spending money for Onity or save enough money to take a vacation all together or even to go to a really high quality restaurant one night.
