Art Therapy
I've been drawing quite a few parts lately and bringing them in and discussing in therapy. This is ny newest drawing. It's a great drawing of dissociation. My body is literally split in half.
The upper body on the right side, the lower body on the left side with a part in the hips. That part ( the creature) keeps trying to come up during therapy and can't. I started drawing what I was feeling in my body.
There's a lot of protectors here. Barb wire keeps that part trapped and there's a hard line between the bottom and top half of my body.
I tried again to draw it coming up beneath the top half of my body and my other parts scratched it out. The left protective barriers in place are so strategic and neat.
Anyone else make shitty art and discuss it in therapy? Any thoughts on the drawing?
