Hattie Porter - Dogs Not Diets



Hattie is the first person I decided to get zines from on Etsy. I was struggling with my mental health and found these zines extremely helpful. Thank you for making them, Hattie! 
She creates mental health themed zines, which are printed on pastel coloured paper (which you can choose which colour you would like) and stitched on the spine. Each zine is mostly typed with some handwritten notes throughout. She also emphasizes certain sentences or key points by hand-drawing underlines or boxes around the words. These zines are filled with facts surrounding the topic (anxiety, panic attacks, depression, etc) to inform you about what is happening to you [Knowledge is power] and adds self-care tips & coping strategies.
There are zines for certain topics and also a bigger book A Small Part Of Everything which is a summary of all the zines up to that point. Which has its own design that is different from the zines. It isn’t just a photocopy of what was already made, it’s a new version just for the book.
If you are interested in grabbing a copy for yourself then head over to Hattie’s Etsy page.
