Introduction
In 2016 I figured out I may have a dissociative disorder.
In 2017 I figured it out again and a comic was drawn related to the experience, making it quite difficult to deny or forget.

There is a therapy method called Fraser's Dissociative Table Technique
-a safe place is established
-a meeting place is established
-communication is facilitated by a therapist
This is really simplified and there's many other methods developed from it but largely...

This is a visualization technique.
The issue with that is after starting antidepressants I developed aphantasia.
I can't hold the image for more than a few seconds.

In order to deal with that my 'visualization' became physical instead.
Theres other methods but this worked best for me.
1 draw table
2 draw a me
3 the rest kinda happens on its own

The really fun part is
I have been doing this technique for years
but I have no memory of where or when I learned this technique
Dissociative amnesia just does that sometimes, always more questions than answers
Anyway
I am putting my related + semi-related comics and art together here and stuff
