The Pressure to Be Happy

In Canadian zinester Jessica's first perzine, she writes about depression, anxiety, therapy, and other topics related to mental health and wellness. In the first part of the zine, she recounts coming to terms with her illnesses, struggling with body image, and trying to work out the problems in her last relationship. The second part, subtitled "learning how to be a better friend," focuses on ways Jessica can help a depressed or stressed out friend without absorbing the negativity herself. Part three includes a list of self-care methods.
