Lmao i make my characters expressly a facet of myself in some way, deliberately. Ive made several characters in the past few years since a big mental breakdown event, its interesting how much mileage a pc can get out of a little trauma!
Best part is that these characters have helped me iron out personal wrinkles in a way that therapy couldn't. Im still doing therapy tho lol.
...likewise, each character is different distillation of some aspect of my own personality; it's kind of an integral part of the character creation process for me to figure out who they are and properly get into character...
Hey, as a random Internet stranger I'm just going to say that I'm proud of you. Everyone has their own path to becoming a better them and I'm glad you're doing the things that work for you. Keep it up!
