I am always trying to look for ways to make concrete examples of abstract concepts.  I heard numerous times how I need to get back to what I was before trauma….problem…my trauma began when I was 5 years old.  I don’t think going back is a viable option for me.  I have a series of pictures that illustrate the change.

Before trauma

Traumatic events

After trauma

Although I am mostly back to healthy there are fringes of distortions that became part of who I am now.  Who I am now is acceptable.
