I have a journal where I do lots of sketches of how I am feeling as I struggle to express it in words. I have many pictures of mazes, of being stuck in them aware that there are exits, but being so lost inside and not being able to find the way out. I then swing between feeling hopeless, helpless and frustrated. However I tell myself the way out of the maze is to just keep walking, I might find myself down the same wrong path many times, but eventually I will recognise that as the wrong path and gradually find my way out. I am still in there, but I think can more easily identify some of the dead ends.

Warm wishes Sanada
