I can't remember much at all about my childhood. Apparently I was a very stroppy baby - yelled a lot and chucked food around etc, but also showed great interest in the world around me. I can remember being a bit of a black sheep at primary school - never really had a best friend and got into a few fights... i can't remember being strongly happy or unhappy - just neutral really. I can remember though getting lost in my own fantasy worlds - making maps of the garden, having my own secret codes and language etc, loving fantasy fiction - CS Lewis etc. Also waking up at 3am, opening the window and smelling the early morning air and feeling immensely happy. I was very imaginative and fully indulged this in drawing, music, acting etc...
I was very sensitive and scared too. It didn't take much to make me cry. I was highly anxious and worried about everything. A key event was getting a kids encyclopedia and turning to a page with a picture of the William Blake painting of the Entrance to Hell, which absolutely terrified me and I never looked at that book again. Interesting since the hell of 'mental illness' has been a big theme of my life.
I was also mouthy and stroppy, got chucked out of pottery club at 11 for being disruptive. I liked to rock boats and shock, more so when getting into teenage years. Two years before K kicked in at 16 I remember getting moody, depressed, searching... everything seemed grey and boring - there must be more to life than this type thing. Then K started and it's been one long firework display ever since.
