WHY I RECOMMEND: Even if we don’t say it out loud, we have all thought “Fuck pain!!”, so I couldn’t NOT add this book to my site!! So funny. So real.

The Chronic Companion is a coloring book for spiraling minds, flare days, and those moments where brushing your teeth feels like a full-time job. With 50 bold and brutally honest illustrations, this coloring book for mental health was made for people healing in real time—burned out, curled up, and still showing up anyway.

Whether you’re battling brain fog, waiting on hold with insurance, or just trying not to cry through your coffee, these pages are here to meet you where you are. From sarcastic affirmations to emotional support heating pads, it’s the snarky coloring book for adults who are over it—but still coloring.
