Art therapy
2 years ago i took a free online course on art therapy and i m thankful for the program. When i am upset, i doodle, and the process helps me take away my emotions.
Today my mum has been complaining non stop about her mother and siblings. I don't feel safe with her because whatever i do and say would irritate her in her already angry state. She has been angry for her whole life. I am sad that i live with her and has to tolerate and deal with her emotions ever since i was a child, even up to now decades later.
So i took out my sketchbook and colour pencils to doodle. I love the personal space i have during doodling, and the strength and pressure i drew with the pencils released the negative energy built up inside me.
