Unpacking my fatphobia. UK28+chronic low back pain. Now use rollator. For YEARS blamed self: "I am fat=I hurt=I'm bad"😣

Noticed fatter persons walking, unaided. Stunned, world is FULL of fats NOT in pain. 🤯

So if fat≠pain, maybe pain="15yrs lugging books, & not lifting w/knees coz hypermobile?" 🤔

Earlier today, I heard Meatloaf's "Bat Out of Hell," and it reminded me of a blissful time as a teenager... that song, full blast, empty hall, me spinning as fast as I could... arms flung out or tucked in as I saw fit... utterly free 😌

I dislike the word "gut"
It's too visceral 😐

Shit. Forgot to take my sertraline today.

The mother and baby are my granny and my mum. The toddler is my aunt. I've no idea who the other two are but the one in the black cossie LOOKS LIKE ME. It's uncanny 😬

This one drew upon the last piece. An exploration of that outrageous concept of loving one's self despite inhabiting a body that is all too often considered socially unacceptable. Four years have passed... and I am still trying to internalise this. Ink and watercolour, Nov 2020

I'm British and automatically read this as The Victoria and Albert Museum (known colloquially as the VA). I got excited for a whole nanosecond about the VA's upcoming trans/non-binary fashion exhibit... then reality smacked me in the face. *sigh*

Stay safe folks 😔

Well it’s certainly not good that they’ve begun the Nazi salutes already…
Um. What did I just watch?

In 2020, I was sent on a "Coping With Mental Health" course. Six weeks of faintly belittling humdrum... apart from the one session on Art Therapy. I came alive during that hour, and I had felt dead inside for far too long. This was my renaissance.
