New In: Feeling Alone #1: A zine about being an inpatient with BPD

"This is a black and white zine I wrote and drew all about my experiences as an inpatient on a psychiatric ward. I suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder which can lead to severe depressive lows. In the zine I describe what the hospital was like, how it was meeting other inpatients, what the nurses were like, how I felt, and what it was like coming home. I decorated the zine and added my own little drawings on most pages :) I used anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress questionnaires as my background paper.

A5 sized zine with 16 pages in total including a paper cover, all held together with a staple."

New In: Feeling Alone #2: One Year On

"This is a black and white zine I wrote and drew about the year following my inpatient experience (which I wrote about in Feeling Alone #1). I wanted to talk about what I've been doing to try to recover from BPD and this includes therapy but it also includes things like roller derby and learning to drive. I decorated the zine and added my own little drawings.

A5 sized zine with 16 pages in total including a paper cover, all held together with a staple."
