Why we're Anxy
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 us.
What we're doing about it
Anxy is a beautiful, bi-annual 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.
Readers Love Anxy
We put a lot of love into Anxy and it shows. Here's what people have to say about our publication.
“Anxy is adding to the discussion, presenting accessible work that dispels stigma and make you rethink your assumptions.”
Jeremy Leslie, MagCulture
“If it sounds like heavy reading, it’s not. Anxy is full of surprises, with stories and art that are often amusing.”
Matt Huber, San Francisco Chronicle
“One of the most beautiful and beautifully-written magazines I’ve come across in a while… it literally makes you want to pick it up and confront the subject of mental health.”
Taamrat Amaize
“This magazine is bloody fantastic… Quality writing and quality design!”
