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.

Just saw this @Faith-and-Hope thank you so much. I feel your sincerity and it touches me deeply.

Re: Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

I could relate to quite a few of those pics. Very confronting. I have some photos on my phone of myself in a battered state at various times to remind me of what happened. It was easy to forget about the bad stuff because the good times were soooo good and there was that expectation that each time was the last time it would happen again but of course it wasn't the case. Now the bad has overtaken and obliterated the good.

Thank you @Former-Member. I'm struggling badly. I think I'm broken tooky. I don't think it's going to get better. I can't even have a conversation about it anymore without it feeling like my whole world is caving in.

Didyou ever feel like this? It's too hard

@Former-Member I felt like that for years... I'm not kidding you.. so no you aren't broken, not in a humpty dumpty way... your just a bit bent out of shape like gumby.. you know.. the plasticine man?

Re: Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

what we need to do @Former-Member is identify what broke you... what bent you out of shape... then little by little we can start bending you back into you.

Silly leaking eyes making me have typos

Re: Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

want me to try to explain to you how I was at my worst @Former-Member so you can see that there is hope? Because you see me now... but this is NOT the Tooky I was. I assure you. I am the original Tooky now, or close too... you know that Funshine you want to get back to? She IS still there.. I know it.. because I found the original Tooky so I know the original Funshine is there.

Want me to tell you some of the things I did at my worst? If I can even remember them? It was such a fog I was in its hazy, but I'm pretty sure I can do it.

Re: Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

I can deal with typos @Former-Member I know what that's like.. you don't worry about that, that's not a problem
