This triptych sequential art piece was created to show the way depression affected me as a child. One symptom I experienced was self-isolation, I portrayed this throughout my piece by showing the character, "Jasmine" refusing social interaction. I would often hide my true emotion because I was scared to show it, this is a trauma response to how I was treated when I did show emotion. I believed therapy was a waste of time, and I feared the process. I felt I was worthless, and didn’t want to talk to anyone if I needed help. I preferred time in solitude to being in environments with people. I found comfort in solitude, eventually isolating myself from everybody, and it ultimately caused me to have a horrible social life and no social skills whatsoever. I was scared to talk to anybody, and I preferred being alone. Looking back at my childhood, I struggled with dealing with my emotions. Currently, I am in a healthy environment that allows me to express myself through my art.
