I would poo poo art therapy only because I s___ at drawing

Coloring drives me nuts, not enough stimulation and not enough space. But if it works for you that's awesome. Yes, that would be concerning hearing oh dear, but you probably knew why, right? I've seen some beautiful artwork from people using art for therapy. You can tell there's a much deeper meaning to it than just a picture, it's sad, scary, happy, fearful, dark and light, not symmetrical. It's interesting and really tells more than a verbal conversation. welcome back!
