My Hand

Submitted by: Morgan Blair on May 17, 2015

"My Hand" is a personal portrayal of my struggle with PTSD.  In it I use metaphorical imagery-such as my hand representing a terrifying event, the space is a nightmare, and I am a survivor-to show what it is like to live with PTSD nightmares that ensue not only when you are asleep, but resurface whenever you are reminded of the traumatic event.
