T is struggling to understand my self image, why I do not look at myself and why I find affirmations triggering. To be fair to T I suck at words especially when that close to something that triggering and frightening.
I have some ideas for artistic expression of my self image but I am worried they are too graphic. I know it is not my job to take care of T and that he has his own means of self care. My original idea was to modify a doll to fit my self image but it would be very graphic and disturbing to “normal” people and it would be hard on T... he isn’t exactly the type to watch horror movies and zombie flicks. So I am wondering if it would be less traumatic for someone to see if it was one dimensional and not in a human form... using a rectangle or something.
Has anyone done something like this? Thoughts? T and I have used similar techniques to represent other (positive) people in my life so it wouldn’t be completely out of left field.
