TW SA MENTION I GUESS
not to be vulnerable, but i really wanna show how childhood mental health affects art
So i was around 10-13 when i first started getting hallucinations, delusions, illusions, etc.
I really lost it at church camp where i saw shit floating in the air and convinced myself a demon was attached to me, followed me home, was watching and sleeping next to me
A couple years before that specific incident i was also sexually assaulted by someone and never said anything
I didnt know how to express my feelings at all and would fill my sketchbook with random drawings to show how i felt




To some people they might look like edgy pre teen drawings (and maybe they just are) but to me it was the feelings i didnt even know were in my brain
The figures of my drawings were always missing something
A mouth, an eye, a head, a limb. A hole in the chest of one and pieces taken from it, bite marks
I looked at these drawings for a while and thought i was just being weird, now that i've started processing some of these memories i've realized it might be a bit deeper
this might be cringe, might delete, ive never attached my face to any of this stuff before now and i hope no one i know in real life is on here
HERES ONE THAT WAS JUST ME BEING WEIRD LOL
