This listing is being trialed for sliding scale. Sliding scale items are not eligible for additional discount codes. (If you use a discount code, your order may need to be revised.) Rather than one set price, you can pay what price feels fair to you. If you're a person who has all your needs met, please consider paying more. If you're a person who is in survival mode, consider paying less. Remember that your payment supports the work of a disabled, queer nonbinary artist. Thank you!

Whether you’re newly diagnosed with a chronic illness or you’re practically a professional patient, this zine will help you speak up for your own needs and interests at your healthcare provider. Learn strategies from someone who has been there both as a patient and as a support person.

This zine is quite dense with LOTS of information and small-ish text. If small type isn't accessible for you, I recommend getting the digital edition which you can zoom in on and comes with a screen reader plain text version as well. This listing is now only for the new, larger, laminated edition - please see my misprints for any copies that may remain of the previous editions.

Also available as a digital edition with screen reader edition.

• 24-pages (including cover)
• 2nd Ed is LARGER! (approximately 4.5" by 5.8")
• photocopied handlettering/original photos/type
• laminated glossy cover
• please keep in mind that zines are handmade and photocopied and have a handmade aesthetic; they may vary slightly from the photos or have imperfections

Disclaimer: This is not medical advice! Think of it more as informational support from a disability doula.

For larger orders, convo me! If you can't afford this zine, but need access to the contents, please message me! I offer sliding scale. Please be sure to check shipping times! My shop has long lead times because I am disabled and I want to make sure I'm not leaving you hanging. If you need your item sooner or by a certain holiday, please message me and I'll let you know if I can send it out quicker (I usually can!). Thanks!
