#mental health zines

Today’s #zine #review is of “Dissociation” by @reflectivezines and @salemblackzines!

How’s your mental health doing? It can be difficult to get on top of, especially if you don’t know where to start. This zine is a step in the right direction. It’s an informative introduction to dissociation, with definitions, personal experiences, and representations of dissociation in media. A page that stuck out to me was titled “Assessing Yourself” and had a list of common experiences to reflect on.

a very short review of Unfuck Your Work: Makin' Paper Without Losing Your Mind or Selling Your Soul

I should probably start this with an unfortunate acknowledgement: the copy I received of this zine is missing a few pages, by which I mean the book jumped from page 10 to page 15, missing no small amount of content in between. That out of the way, Faith G. Harper’s Unfuck Your Work: Makin’ Paper Without Losing Your Mind or Selling Your Soul, is a great concept, and Dr. Harper is an engaging…

this zine may not be about you. for a long time these thoughts were in my brain but only to lovingly yell at my friends. this zine may be about you but not helpful to you at this time. i hope it's helpful to some though.

if you like this zine you may also like the body neutrality movement. and the song "can't go back" by the crane wives, which i kinda quoted as well. leave the rest behind.

this is part of my project to make a zine a day in april

some things that didn't fit in this zine were:

you gotta learn. you gotta learn that learning doesn't mean feeling bad.

it doesn't help you act right to feel bad about previous things. guilt is useful to a point. that point is reached when you know what you did wrong

Hey guys I added two new FREE printable zines to my shop

“What’s your Nature?” Can be downloaded here

⚠️ The zine is about mental health and gender stuff, it’s vague but if you don’t want to read that beware ⚠️

“Very Real Rabbits” Can be downloaded here

This one’s just a fun zine about rabbits :)

Question for the five people and the random porn-blogs that folllow me: I'm trying to make a zine collecting a bunch of depression-friendly recipies (mainly meaning recepies that require as little preparation as possible). All the recepies I have so far are gluten-free as I'm a celiac and I'm generally looking for a bit more diversity...

Any ideas?

Image description: [ A digital poster with a beige background and a small graphic of a book that has yellow flowers growing out of it. Text says: Psych survivor Zine. Open call for submissions from Mad Artists. Looking for pieces that explore how psych survivors resist psychiatric violence, with a special focus on transforming our medical records. Pieces exploring topics in mad studies, antipsychiatry, and peer support are likely to be a good fit. $100 Stipend. Deadline for proposals: March 31st.

Hello everyone! I am thrilled to announce that I'm searching for collaborators for the first edition of a Psych Survivor zine!! I've been working on this project for a while, and there are several other components that will be rolled out throughout this spring (if you aren't an artist/writer but still want to be involved, keep an eye out on my blog.) This zine is going to be physically published and hosted on a website created specifically for this project.

This zine is open to anyone who identifies as mad/mentally ill/neurodivergent/psych survivor/ex patient, and any form of art is welcome, whether that's poetry, critical essays, digital art, photography, or anything else. Due to funding constraints, I will likely only be selecting 10-13 people to add to this edition. This edition is focused specifically on abolishing and transforming our medical records, and click on the link above to read the full prompt.

Please feel free to email me or message me on tumblr with any further questions, and I'm so excited to hopefully work with some of you on this project!

I could talk about all the metaphors and nuances behind this comic. But I won't.

Have a good day <3

"If you're finding that none of the usual things you like bring you pleasure and that any attempts to try new pleasurable things leave you feeling blank, it might be time to check in with a therapist or counselor. Anhedonia, the fancy word for "nothing I like feels good anymore" can be a symptom of mental health issues, particularly depression. We all have low days where nothing seems to make us feel better, but if your low day has turned into a low month, or multiple months, it's good to check in with a mental healthcare provider⁠ to see if there's an underlying cause that needs treating."

My zine the Map of the Lost Mushrooms is now on gumroad! 

Zine briefly touches on my depression and anxiety struggles, so trigger warning for that.
