Self-image in sadness
In spite of my shiny exterior (yellow), I used to feel very empty inside apparently for no reason, especially during and after my menstrual periods.
I found myself desperately in need to find the real me and get answers to my existential quests.
In this image, I have drawn myself as a candle like flower (flame above the surface of the black ocean with blue and pink petals), drifting in a black ocean, heaving heavily because of hurricane gale (blue and gray waves above the ocean). The stem of the candle has anger (red on the left), sadness (deep blue in the middle) and hopelessness (gray on the right) smothered because of panic attacks (red spiral).
