I get what you mean about trying to relearn a coping mechanism into something joyful. I used to write, and when my life is going well, I just… can’t. It’s hopeful to see that there might be another side to it, where I can be creative and happy at the same time. 🤣 I’m so glad you’ve found it.
Thank you so much, I'm glad you liked the chapter.
I had linked writing and drawing to being sick or depressed, so whenever I did those things, it would remind my body of being sick and depressed. So it would start stressing out and making me feel that way. It took some unraveling, but I eventually figured it out and reset things. I hope you can learn to create and be joyful too!
This chapter full-on made me cry. Bravo.
