As someone who has anxiety and depression, I found the most theraputic way to manage  it was though photography. Whenever I would start to feel anxious for depressed I always got the urge to be more creative. Using photography really helped me get though my darkest times.therapeutic  ​Most people don't realize  how many people live with mental illness every day, especially  in college. As senior in college and I found it an extremely difficult emotionally just to get though a day sometimes. Most people picture college as a happy party atmosphere, and for some people it is, but for others it feels like you're living in someone else's skin just going through  the motions.

These photos are representations  of different  mental illnesses and how people deal with them. I mostly used the same model to show how one person can go through mental illness, to show her journey. I also took these pictures in my door room to represent how college students live with mental illness every day.
