1. The Birth of a Tail (Start) Start with a short, meaningless tail at first. The tail symbolizes "anxiety in me," setting it to begin with a little childhood fear or anxious feelings. The short tail gradually turns into something that bothers me. Example: "At first the tail was small and cute. No one cared, and I thought so. But over time the tail turned long, heavy and sharp, eating the fear and anxiety inside me." 2. the growth of anxiety (in the middle) As the tail eats through my experiences and trauma(eg not being able to meet my parents expectations or my parents fighting and almost devours, mom gaslighting me), it gets longer more complicated. Tails cover me or follow me and bully me. There are disturbing figures sprouting from the tail, or the tail tying me up. Example: "The tail remembered all the hurt and trauma I went through. The bullying at school, the fear of failure, and the moments when I couldn't accept myself. All these memories made the tail heavy and long." 3. a confrontation with the tail (the climax) The moment I realize that the tail is part of me. I want to take the tail off, but it's already completely stuck as part of my body. The more I try to get rid of the tail, the stronger it reacts and harasses me. Example: "I tried to pull the tail off. But it was my flesh and bone. I couldn't pull it off, but rather the tail tightened me even more. The more I fought to get rid of the tail, the more and more I was tied to it. Endless Anxiety: A tragic ending with a tail growing endlessly and completely covering me. Example: "I eventually decided to talk to the tail face to face. 'You are a part of me. But I can control you.' At that moment the tail stopped little by little, and became lighter." Or: "The tail grew endlessly. My memory, anxiety, pain couldn't stop the tail. And I ended up being swallowed by the tail."
