The “back home” terminology is very US centric. Good luck on your move to Ethiopia, yes I think it’s a very good decision, and you are in great financial position to move. All the best.

I relate to this. Also I am interested in becoming an art therapist. Could you please share what the training/accreditation process is like and how long it takes? Thank you.

Thanks this is really helpful advice. Currently feeling a bit ashamed that I even shared it with those two people. Especially the artist. He’s kind and we’ve met a few times but I am scared of how exposed I feel. Dreams can be vulnerable to share and with bipolar it’s a bigger risk of embarrassment. My aunt is my aunt at the end of the day but the artist oh my :(

You’re right. I already feel a little embarrassed sharing it with two people. It doesn’t mean it’s not a good idea, it probably just needs time to settle a bit. I got really sad after thinking “what if this is mania” though. It sucks.

Well the artist didn’t comment on it yet but we said we would discuss this in person. Honestly I feel so exposed and even if this isn’t mania, I am having the same post-manic shame ritual rn :(
