Well my T asked me to draw myself because I've drawn her my imaginary friends and she's curious how I see me and wants to see if I picture myself the way she sees me. I drew her a total of four pictures. One (1)just a sketch of a faceless me which I (2)redrew and painted I'll show you guys that one since I took a pic of it. (3)I also drew someone peeking out from behind a partially opened door but there's no details it's a shadowed figure in a dark room. (4)I drew a little boy (I have a female body but have always seen myself as male) holding wilting flowers behind his back and covered in dirt standing in a mud puddle on the carpet, crayons on the floor with a drawing on the wallpapered wall, a cat rubbing on his legs, my first imaginary friend (a ninja) hanging from the ceiling carefreely giving the peace sign, and a guilty expression on the boy's face.

I was wondering what sort of reaction can I expect from my T. She's exploring the idea of me possibly having DD NOS since I do have DID traits but don't fit in the perfect box and haven't had an official evaluation in that direction. My psychiatrist knows about my imaginary friends and I think that my T talks to him about me because I'm "interesting" and a good topic over lunches apparently. So I dunno what's going to happen when I show her the pictures. I'd like to just have an idea of what I might expect since the unexpected is one of my many stresses. And yeah I kinda realize that she may not even be thinking about my dissociation, I just want to know in general what to expect of her.
