158 writers and artists journey Through the Looking Glass to unveil the truth about living with mental illness. Diverse, raw, and urgent, the poetry, prose, and artwork contained in this anthology dig deep into the experience of living with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and other neurodivergent conditions, or of loving others who struggle with it.


Full of hope and despair, acceptance and rebellion, the creativity contained within these pages reflects the truth that we cannot walk around or behind the looking glass, but must walk through it unflinchingly to educate, foster compassion, and begin to reduce the stigma so often associated with mental illness
