Tattoo for a fresh start

3 replies

I want to get something tattooed on my wrists to symbolise a fresh start in life for me. Mentally over the past few years I have been through so much hurt and struggled badly with depression. But I'm on my way to coming out the other side and I want a tattoo that I can look at and remember how far I've come. Any ideas you have, whatever they are, will be greatly appreciated Thanks

I got a butterfly to symbolise my fresh start 3 1/2 years ago

Lotus flower is supposed to be a sign for new beginning / depression healing but might be too big / complicated for a wrist tattoo.

I'm a great fan of good tattoos but I'd advise against, at least for a while. A tattoo won't help you remember anything and you may come to associate it with the period you're closing off rather than the one you're starting.

Treat yourself to a beautiful bracelet or ring or some such instead. The shop minimum (of somewhere that does good work) is likely to be about £100. You could get a stunning peice of jewellery for that.
