    Rest assured you are not just blabbering to the camera; your shared knowledge is valuable and appreciated. The zine you showcased here is amazing! Not only is the kind of reading that can deeply touch another person, but it is also a text-heavy/wordy zine (those are my favorites!) Thanks for another great video.

    "Someone can struggle with mental health and still be an asshole" - absolutely!! Good for you for getting out of the relationship. It's usually not clear to anyone else when someone is trying to manipulate you. Having a creative outlet is really important.

    CONTENT WARNING . . . . . . . . . you were very helpful sharing your personal story, the same thing happened to me except he followed through, he died. he told me if I left he would kill himself and then he did. Ive been broken ever since I started making zines with the help of your channel and bc I have so much personal crap to work through thanks to you, I finally found an appropriate medium to express my personal narrative art, wish me luck on my journey I am so grateful for you and your content.

    First I want to say I am so incredibly sorry for what happened to you. I know you’re still working through this but please always remember that what he chose to do is not your fault (I know that doesn’t make it any easier to accept) I’m glad we could connect but it’s a bit unfortunate it’s under these circumstances, I just really hate you have to carry this pain. But on the bright side I’m happy you discovered zines as an outlet! Zines help me through my trauma too. Keep going!! Sending you lots of love ❤️

    I recently got into making collage art. It's fun to cut out stuff from old magazines or print some things out manually, cut them up and mash them together with tape and glue. I don't see a lot of collage art around (they're out there, I just can't find that many recent examples), so I hope to throw my hat into the ring. Even if the final piece I make doesn't make any sense thematically whatsoever, it's just the fun of making stuff that keeps my hands and mind busy. Excellent idea, Bratty!

    Collage art is such a fun way to express yourself. It really goes hand in hand with zine making since both are very much DIY and a bit messy - I love it! If you haven’t heard of this collage artist already, might I suggest you check out Chaotic Collage on Instagram (I love their work) 👇🏽 instagram.com/cha0tic_collage?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
