half sized / hand-bound / card stock cover / text & illustration / 19 pages
an illustrated pep-talk in a zine, featuring an introduction to basic methods for managing anxiety & implementing self care.
this was my first zine ever! it was written in 2010. it's a diy guide that is heavily informed by personal experience. there's a lot of very basic info and self care ideas in it, but with a mind to the fact that self care looks different for everyone (that's why it's SELF care ! ~). it's been my best seller since it was created and i'd estimate there's something like 300+ copies out there in the world. it includes drawings by myself and friends (the cover illustration was done by meg whitney, who helped me bind these for like 6 hours one night and gifted me the awl i use to bind all of my zines), a big long posi playlist courtesy of my pen pal pete, and a super special illustration by yumi sakugawa, used with permission <3

This is probably the coolest thing on Etsy. Love the originality, humor, creativity, empathetic insights...and it's only five bucks! I'll be ordering more as gifts for everyone I know w/anxiety (everyone I know). It arrived quickly, sweetly packaged, and is truly a work of art. Thanks, Craft or DIY!

This booklet does contain cool/cute drawings, easy to understand information on anxiety and self care and some funny stuff to make you smile. I didn't feel like I really gained any new information from It though. I will definitely have it around just as a reminder of things I can do to help with my anxiety disorder.
