For my storytelling series, I created a representation of something I deal with in my own life – anxiety.  I decided to make my very first photography story about the stages I go through during the experience – feeling uncomfortable and overly aware, shortness of breath, onset of stress, fearful emotions (fight or flight response), and finally feeling trapped and overwhelmed.  As someone who has coped with anxiety attacks, informing myself and others about mental health is of extreme importance to me.
