Therapy conversation

Dear Fandom, dear Mr. Gaiman,

I hope this isn´t weird but i have something to confess.

Since I watched the second season of Good Omens, I've gone through so many phases that I barely recognize myself anymore.

My first reaction after episode 6 was shock, then I was disturbed because I didn't know that it was possible for a series to have such a strong influence on my psyche, I questioned myself and doubted my sanity. Then I was overcome by an incredible sadness and was really heartbroken. I felt like a pubescent teenager, in my mid-30s. I couldn't sleep properly for several days, had nightmares and my thoughts were with these two ineffable loving idiots the whole time.

And the worst thing about it was that for the first few days I was really ashamed to admit to myself and my husband that I was completely and hopelessly immersed in this world. I did nothing but watch videos, listen to sad songs, and read heartbreaking fanfictions for days. And of course I read the book again and watched the series over and over again. All in the hope that it will ease my heartache a little.

But as is often the case in these situations, after a few days in which no real change occurs, you have the thought that you will be lost in this feeling forever. But since I have 3 children that I need to look after, of course locking myself away for weeks with heartbreak wasn't an option, so I had to find an outlet for myself to channel my pain.

So I started painting a picture. By Aziraphale and Crowley. And stroke by stroke I let my feelings flow out of me and into the picture.

It took over a week until I had a motif in which I could see my thoughts and feelings expressed and then it took another week until I finished the picture. On an old canvas with paints that haven't been used for a long time, with many, many layers of old paint underneath.

But when the picture was finally finished, it really took a load off my mind. It was like I had broken a dam and was finally able to let it all out and convert it into creative energy.

But I think the most important thing was that I uploaded the picture to Tumblr and received such a response that I was incredibly touched and immediately motivated to paint more pictures.

Since that day, hardly a moment goes by when I am not holding a pen in my hand or not thinking about a new picture. I'm in one of the most creative phases in a very long time and I'm really enjoying it.

I am so grateful for the wonderful people here! Here I see that I'm not alone with my strange feelings that I still don't really know how to classify. Here I read thoughts that are so similar to mine, here I see works of art that melt my heart, here I feel understood!

And I am so grateful for the pain that showed me the way back to my creative energy!

Thank you Fandom!

Thank you Neil Gaiman!

I would have been lost without you!

Because I don't know my way around here very well, I didn't think about pinning the picture in question as a link when I created this post, but since many people have asked about it, I've pinned it here. Thank you all, love love love

I believe this is the final thing from Undertale that I am going to make. This project began February 15th, 2023 and as of today, January 3rd, 2024, Omega Flowey is finished. He is nearly 5 foot long, and I have to stand on a stepstool to take a pictures of him. I use the pixel art created by idlemidnight as a pattern in order to make him look as accurate as I can to the game. Now that he is finished, he will be hung above my bed. Thank you again, @fwugradiation for your amazing game, it means more to me than I can say.

I have to be honest with myself and admit that I have reached the point in my life where every day I wake up opening ao3 and check for new fanfics and updates of the ones I am following like it's the freaking morning newspaper

My sister introduced Peach to his big brother this morning. They immediately started playing and wrestling within minutes, and keep following each other around to play. This is all Peach wanted, to be able to jump on a cat and have it wrestle back. 😭😻

I am so honored you were willing to do an art trade for this and can't wait for you to receive you end soon!

Sam Coe's necklace looks so amazing and I love it so much! I temporarily twisted some cord but I have a leather cord laying around somewhere I'm excited to use! 😍
