Mixed feelings is a “newsletter and obsessively-online community…that deals in all things existential.” Going through a BFF breakup or having trouble setting boundaries? Every other week, a different mental health expert or writer will answer the questions keeping us up at night. Our multitudes are seen and celebrated in Mixed Feelings.

Not only can you write in to the team at MF, but you can write for Mixed Feelings as a contributor.
