This is my current state of being. The blue is my depression. The orange is my PTSD. The black is both. The white is neither. The text in the center is glow-in-the-dark, and will fade as it dries. This is my first time using art to feel my feelings. It is okay to not be okay.5yr ⋅ SpacePeepo ⋅ r/ArtTherapy

This month I'm doing at least five minutes of creative play everyday. Smocktober! Today I found that playing freely with watercolour paints helped me to regulate my emotions (energy/anxiety/excitement). It allowed me to slow down, notice and amplify some empowering feelings that I found inside me.5yr ⋅ annapaddick ⋅ r/ArtTherapy
