Hey friends,

I’m excited to announce a project I’ve been working on and am extremely passionate about: Anxy Magazine. Anxy is a magazine that explores mental health through personal narratives, creative writing, interviews, visual stories, and more. There are some incredible people involved in the project and we will be launching a Kickstarter campaign next week. In the meantime, please get on our email list (we won’t spam you, I promise, we will only send you the most necessary updates about the project) and share the content we’re posting on Facebook and Twitter and help us spread the buzz about Anxy. Also feel free to check out the website at www.anxymag.com.

Nearly half of American adults develop a mental illness in their lifetime; depression affects 350 million people worldwide. Yet the struggle to be well is still a shameful secret so many of us lock away—despite the fact that it drives so many of us.

Anxy is changing that.

Anxy is a beautifully-designed magazine about our inner worlds—the ones we often refuse to share, the personal struggles, the fears that fool us into believing that the rest of the world is normal and we’re not.
