Welcome Beautiful Strangers!

If you found one of our lovely tomb stones or eyeball pathways, hello and welcome beautiful stranger! The Strange is Beautiful is a self-help guide for anxiety, panic attacks, depression and other mental obstacles, and for life-stress such as break-ups, deaths of loved ones, the struggle of being young and poor, and more! We want your self-help tips, rants on why people suck, angsty poems, sad music, weird art, personal stories, and anything else you’d like to send.

“You Can Be Broke and Self-Care” Exhibit: Recap, Photos & Resources

“You Can Be Broke and Self-Care” is a photo interview exhibit featuring 13 people in LA with mind obstacles (that’s what we call mental illnesses) practicing alternative self-care authentically in their home or space.

It was created by Shannen Roberts (she/her), the queer, Peruvian-American founder of The Strange is Beautiful. Spanish translation completed by Angelica Ravelo Franco (@ange.ravelo & angemerce79@gmail.com).
