Thanks @Zoe7 @Would love to share here!

About 6 months ago I was diagnosed with EUPD. In that time I've lost everything. My daughter is in temporary custody with my mum, lost my home, family, friends. I've been fighting the MH system to get the right support. Finally I moved to a new area and was linked with the right ppl! I go to an Intensive Day Therapy Unit (IDTU) 4 days a week 10am- 3pm. It's run by psychologists, psychiatrists, OT's and Social Workers. I'm doing a mindfulness course and we have 2 psychosocial sessions a day, one on one with your caseworker and social sessions. It's INTENSE! Incredibly hard but I'm making small improvements. I've been there for 6 weeks. On the first day I did the art open art group. No idea what to do, the therapist suggested I draw a tree. So I did! And I haven't stopped since! I think it might have unlocked a hidden talent! Who knew! When I'm not in therapy or sleeping I'm drawing or painting. The benefits have been amazing! Very grounding and helps me practice mindfulness. Here's some of my fave pieces so far.... enjoy!

The tree that started it all!

This didn’t photograph very well. There’s grass detail all the way through. A3 Took about a week!

I used watercolour pencils for this one, took hours!

The “Catalpa.” The name of the building I do IDTU at.

I was born in Derby, love the outback!
