I am blessed to get in individual!

Change, all of the groups, I have investigated around my location, are group based, whether they are offered, by a hospital or the YWCA.

I wish, I could blessed like that, Joan.

Therisa, I hate groups too, however, it seemed different in art therapy because you are working separately on your art. I write too, and it seemed almost as individualized as the writing is for me. My only fault was leaning towards perfection, when, really, it should be all about the emotion or thoughts you are trying to convey. In the end the piece is only for you. I also found it interesting when we each talked about our art pieces and what they meant to us.

I truly hope you enjoy this. Well, I think you understand what I mean. I hope it is as cathartic for you as it was for me.

Thank you, Britt. I know, no two pieces of poetry, which I write is, the same. Rather, an expression of that particular moment of time, which I am aware of. Britt, part of my abuse, happened in group settings, and having to talk about anything, about me, is triggering. As for perfectionalism, what's that? Joking. :p My poetry are one-shot, which I leave alone, after writing them.
