Favorite Place To Hide

[Bubba]

One of my favorite things to do is just close my eyes. I feel like if I close my eyes no can see me. No one can know what I'm thinking or feeling. I'm basically invisible. I can be in the same room with someone but if my eyes are closed they can't touch me.

My other hiding place is a closet or bathroom. Somewhere small preferably with no windows or at least just one small window. Somewhere that I can shut everyone and everything out and just hide. The smaller the space the better although I do like to be able to move LOL.

What is your favorite place to hide?

I like covering my eyes with my hands so I can still open them but I see nothing but darkness. I feel like I am in my own universe where no one else could ever get into. I also have a big chair in my bedroom, next to my bed and close to the corner. I sometimes drag it away from the wall and I bring a blanket and I sit on the floor on the corner, away from all the windows and behind the big chair. But my therapist told me that I should try to stop hiding when I want to cry or when I feel like a child. That I need to be able to express myself all over my home. That I live alone and no one can see me or hurt me. So now doing it feels like I'm doing something wrong. :(

I love to close me eyes, too, because the world can be so overstimulating. I like to hide in the woods.

I hide in my art. I enter a magical place that is safe. It had textures,colors, blank surfaces.
I am starting to crochet mandalas. All colors of thread and different stitches for texture. No one can touch me there.

My favorite place to hide has always been in the smallest place I can fit myself into. I've since 'niched out a "safe space" in mine and my boyfriend's closet. He knows I'm there so he doesn't freak out not knowing where I am, and when I'm in there he can't come into the closet unless he asks me (and that's only if he needs an article of clothing). I've got it all set up with a pillow and a blanket and a flashlight if I need it, although I prefer it dark.

The shower room at my old station, in the ambulance at any station, in the bathroom, in my jeep, in my bedroom, in the night, in my head.

Tent

I wish I was a child again because I've nowhere to hide

(and now I also have a Madonna song stuck in my head, nowhere to run, nowhere to hide)
