Hey there all!
So, I plan on getting my first tattoo this year. I plan on getting it when I'm in a really good, healthy spot. That way I have a permanent reminder that can help me when I'm low and remind me that the depression won't last forever.
The only problem is, I'm having a hard time deciding on a symbol. I plan to get it on my wrist (really symbolic b/c of
sh), small enough that it can be hidden w/ bracelets or a watch. I want something that symbolizes rebirth, fresh starts, hope, and serenity.
I had always planned on getting a butterfly, because they mean a lot to me and have been a big part of my recovery. The only problem is I'm not sure if I'd want a butterfly on my wrist forever. I then started thinking about a dove, but I don't want it cartoonish. I'm just kind of at a lost for what would look good on my wrist and that I would still enjoy when I'm older.
Do any of y'all have any ideas?
