Bird Brain

When Chuck Mullin began to suffer from anxiety and depression aged seventeen, she turned to drawing comics as a way to make sense of her experience. She soon found that pigeons were the perfect subjects through which to explore the complexities of living with mental illness, and several years later, her funny, quirky birds have won legions of fans online.

From Bad Times to Positivity, the comics in Bird Brain use humour to provide a glimpse of whats going on in Chucks head: dissociative episodes; cycles of anxiety; her struggle to accept shes not alone; and the power of optimism on the days its possible.
