alright so im writing this at like, 2 am because this vn ripped up basically every grave i had in my head and sent me into a nearly two day long bpd bender and im still kinda riding the mania, ive realized a whole lot of things, been slowly making my way through the rest of your stuff

im attempting to pick up the pieces of my mental landscape and put myself back together cause it wasnt just a few things this unburied like i thought, it cause more or less a ripple that has been smashing every wall i had in my head, and leading me to realize how much ive completely suppressed myself to please other people. and i do wanna say it wasnt entirely just this vn, but more that it was the last drop in the bucket before it tipped over

ive realized a lot about myself and can now firmly say that i will be myself for the first time when its done, its like... being reborn in a way, i was already almost there but this piece of art ripped me out of the womb a bit before i was ready so im stuck fixing shit until i am

i will have this as a marker in my transition as pre and post loner dog

i dont even know how to explain this to my therapist, i dont even know if i should try. i dont know if i could say shit without getting committed lol

sorry if this is rambly, like i said still kinda riding a mania high and it feels like im exhausted and wired at the same time but ill probably be back in a few weeks to put a more stable explanation here

see you then

Omgg I completely missed this response, sorry for not getting back sooner!! These are some incredibly powerful words; Having created it, I also feel a pre / post loner dog split in my life, and I am honored and ecstatic to hear you've had a similar experience!

I hope the mania had a good / chill comedown <3 (if it has by now)

from my own experience, my therapist commended my self reflection and now I used art to work through self-destructive patterns and mental spirals, and how I identified those patterns to put into words. maybe that can help? as long as your therapist doesn't have an insanely inflated ego, the phrase "I found myself in a piece of art and healed myself through it" should be good news. therapists love when we do their jobs for them dfhjgbjdfg (or more like, they're there as professional guardrails / threads and we generally do our own healing anyways)

loving the rambly nature, cannot wait to hear more from you! (here or feel free to reach out on my socials as well if you like)
