Final Project Soundslide

Here is my final project for this class.

Warning: This video contains mentions of abuse, rape, self-harm and suicide. If any of these topics are triggering to you for any reason, please do not watch.

I had decided to do a soundslide story on an old friend of mine, Lindsey. I had known Lindsey through high school and she has always been one of my best friends and someone I looked up to. A few years ago, when Lindsey first went to college, she had gotten into a relationship that became toxic. Her boyfriend abused her and she plummeted into a depression. When she was finally able to break away from him, she suffered PTSD, body dysmorphia and depression.

I was initially going to do this soundslide on her recovery process and how she had gone from where she had been to where she is now, but her story of her abuse and her finding her way out of the relationship was so much more powerful than anything else I could have put together from her recovery story that I decided to focus on this part of her story instead.
