Yes! A self portrait

You're incredibly expressive and detailed. I can't stop thinking about it. I'm imagining putting words on it, to explain how you make me feel.

A screaming, itching sensation. That never ceases to ache me.

This speaks volumes to me too. It makes me think of how all my energy is focused around my head due to all the memories of trauma in my head and because 4 of our 5 senses are in our head area. Touch is the only sense below the neck. And mind-body dissociation is the most effective solution to dampen the body's traumatic memories, which puts even more energy in the head area. Therefore, as you say, I always feel "heavy headed". I hope you're okay with me giving you my words. Thank you for sharing your art with us.

I will adopt your drawing for my trauma work, if that's okay with you. I'd like to name her Rose, after one of my favourite songs that came out in highschool, when I had already split into a million pieces after a lifetime of brutal trauma. Here are the lyrics, followed the the song "The Rose" by Bette Midler....

Some say love, it is a river
That drowns the tender reed
Some say love, it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed

Some say love, it is a hunger
An endless aching need
I say love, it is a flower
And you, its only seed

It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance

It's the one who won't be taking
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul, afraid of dying
That never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong

Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose
