Ripples — concept art for A PTSD Story traces a girl’s path from trauma to recovery. Images move from shock, fragmentation, spirals, isolation and numbness to growing awareness, building connection, and coping. Stark textures and quiet moments—mirrors of self-destruction, bowed head crying, opening the mind—depict harm and healing. Small details—held breath, steadier hands, new routines—show harmful habits becoming healthy skills. Though unfinished, the art compassionately shows trauma’s ripples can be reshaped and calmed.
