One thing my therapist has told me about myself that I believe to be correct is that I tend to go from one thing to the next what ever sounds cool to me that day. I never finish anything. And I get this false idea in my head of what I am. This is kind of true. So I think thats something I'd like to work on.
She has also said that I don't have a good focus on who I am and I'm not in touch with who I am. (she gets this from me wanting to because I told her I have a passion for acting/ theatre but I am so shy I'd never try it. She's like, "you aren't really an actress if you don't pursue it." But can't I like, have an interest??? A lot of things I have done and failed at though, I wasn't experienced in and thats why I had difficulty. I didn't know what I was getting myself into.
So, I've stopped talking about the things I do, and what interests me in therapy. Because it seems like every time I do she shoots me down and she's like, "what you just said makes me unsure of you doing this."
I've decided to use colored pencils for now but maybe I can find some cheap acrylics somewhere.
