Hey Trix: Let me introduce Whimsy!
Let me introduce Whimsy
This comic is about how Whimsy came into my life:
This second comic is kinda twofold. Did SHE disappear because her parents couldnāt reach her or did THEY disappear for her because she couldnāt reach them?
Thereās no blame here, itās just expression. Itās nobodyās fault, not my own, not others.
My therapist says itās good to express emotions and my way has always been through the arts. I like the comic format because it allows storytelling and illustrations. Words and images. My two favorite things in the world.
I was a kid and I shouldnāt have felt this way. But neither should my parents. And not the other adults around me either. With age (and with the help of DBT - dialectical behavioral therapy) Iāve learned that many things can be true at the same time. I was hurt. They were hurt. Nobody wanted to be hurt. But nonetheless, we were.
Wrongdoings were made, innocent lives were harmed, but itās also true that we connected deeply because of it. Some things shouldnāt have happened. Some lessons should have been learned earlier. But now it is what it is and itās not our fault. And with āourā I mean both me and my alters, our system, and I mean in the literal sense, me and the people around me.
