A:

well i have about 400-500 drawings and writings on paper in a big shoebox.  Im not really looking to deal with any sort of emotion, rather looking for an explanation or something physical that I can identify it as.  I dont neccesarily want to sit there and draw out pictures...all my "work" is already done.  I've just been kind of stuck with all of this and am finally wanting to move past it, so Im just looking for a name to put the face...ya know?  Im not really looking for therapy or help because of or for it, I've kind of managed that on my own. I'd just like to know how far down the rabbit hole I was/still might be or if I still have reason to worry about it. I mean, Im not crazy, its just I have never been able to not draw or write and much of what I have been through has been put down onto paper, and it is rather dark.  Having something to call it by and looking at the options or how to move on from it I guess would be what Im looking for.  I would go to a psychologist for it, but I think it would be much easier for someone to analyze my "work" rather than talk one on one.  The other reason is that much of my...problems?...come from my writing and my drawings and I cant really talk about my feelings with someone without having to talk about my "work".  When I would write and draw, I mean, to be quite honest its insanely sad and dark and just scary.  I dont even open my shoebox anymore, I just cannot read or see any of them.  I just want someone to be able to explain what and why, ya know?  I guess...does that fit art therapy?
