Talking to Rocks
In an attempt to alleviate my health anxiety, I have started talking to rocks. This work acts as a record of my recent visits to the doctor, after four years of being fixated on one part of my body, convincing myself there is something seriously wrong. During these visits, I focused on the moments spent in the waiting room, using the notes app to list what I could see, hear, and feel, while waiting for my name to be called. Whilst doctors prescribed me medicine for my physical symptoms, I prescribed myself rituals for my mental health, drawn from Irish folklore. One ritual involved telling rocks my secrets, to unburden myself of some of my biggest fears.
