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.

Re: Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

@Former-Member - so sorry today is hard. It sounds really awful. There's probably nothing I can say that you wouldn't have heard or thought of before, but know I'm here thinking of you. Sobbing, venting, being a bundle of mess - it's all ok (even though it doesn't feel it). Do what need to do today because it will be the right thing for you.

Hugs to you today too @Former-Member - I've missed seeing you on your daily goals thread. Sorry to hear things are hard for you at the moment too. Hope you're taking care of you.

I know the angry /tear cycle too well at the moment @Former-Member. Don't worry about whatever happened. Everyone is used to emotions getting out of control here. I've done it a heap of times too in my time here. I know it's cliche but please look after yourself and try to do something nice for you. I know it's easier said than done. Sending hugs. 💜🤗

@Former-Member yeah the cycle sux. No idea what I can do for myself right at the moment... well yes I do.. I could forgive myself I guess

Re: Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

Yes it happens and yes it will pass and yes you will get through it because you have gotten through it all before. But it doesn't make it easier right now. Bloody leaky eyes ruining typing abilities - it happens too.

Are you with anyone today or on your own?

I think that forgiving yourself sounds like an awesome gift personally @Former-Member 💜

thanks @Former-Member it's only short to get past SI which had been building. I'd been trying to pull myself out using that thread but I lost. Hopefully when I'm feeling a little more in control I'll be back there. Look after yourself too.

💜🤗
