Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

This is a little project I did earlier this week, inspired by @Faith-and-Hope on one of the art threads, also @Appleblossom and Sherry, and some others on the Carers side.

The story "reads" left to right line by line as you would a book.

Some will "get it" some probably won't but nonetheless, it depicts my "black hole" story and everything in it is chosen or placed deliberately. It's supposed to be a side by side trilogy but in this format it's the three sequential pages so the pics in the collage can be seen.

It's a little scary posting it because it means something to me but well here it is anyhow.

@Former-Member - I hope so much that you were able to have a restful sleep last night and that you've woken today feeling stronger and better. (I also hope you're getting @mentions still pushed via email and you can see these messages). Hope today feels better for you Tooky, and even if it doesn't, there are people here to share that with or sit with you in it for a while or help you try and forget it for a bit 💗

Hi @Former-Member, I saw some of the posts about your distress last night. I hope sleep has soothed the waters a little for you. Either way, I'm here to chat too if you would like some company this morning, to unpack or distract, make small talk or cosmic talk, or all of those intertwining.

@Former-Member @Former-Member @soul @Faith-and-Hope

Thankyou for your very kind @mentions and words of support. But I don't think the forum is for me. My trauma isolates me and it has been a road of hell tto recover the Tooky you have seen. I cannot chance relapsing. You have no idea what it has taken to get to where I am, and how could you? The experience is/was mine and mine alone. I know though. Oh I know alright. It took super human strength to get this Tooky back and honestly, that is no exaggeration. I have to believe in what I know and the Tooky I am or all will be lost again. And I'm absolutely not losing my Tookiness I can't go back. i just can't.

Tooky.

@Former-Member can you hang for at least 5mins here please so I can properly read this and get back to you?

@Former-Member What is it you need from the forum. Maybe if you could answer that it would help. I only want what is best for you no matter what.

@Former-Memberj. Nothing. I want nor expect nothing from the forum. People give what they want. That is not up to me to determine what others choose to give.

Re: Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

I find the Tooky you are, an incredible one @Former-Member. You know what's right for you and what isn't and that's huge. If there's a chance of relapse, then that Tooky needs to be kept safe and nurtured, I totally understand that. I am super sorry that what's happened has happened.

You are a superwoman Tooky and I hope that you can continue to use that super human strength and be even more super.

If you leave, I will miss our chats, laughs, challenging conversations (in a really good way) and those pictures you seem to pull from nowhere. I will understand though.

Thank you for being the Tooky you are.

Re: Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

@Former-Member - I'm with @Former-Member here too. I think you are absolutlely ok to say what it is ok and not ok for you here. People can then decide if they can give that and if they want to they will and if not they won't. If that means making a Tooky thread that you define what's ok for you and what isn't - is that an option? Hang in that until the rest feels safer?

Re: Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

@Former-Member Thankyou. I have no emojis on this, but imagine flowers bows and bowed hearts. Thankyou, maybe I will say hi from time to time, at this point I doubt it, but you know I live in the moment so whatever I think is best in days to come I will do and I don't rule anything out. That's too limiting for Tooky. Tooky doesn't like limits 😄
