30-Day Happiness Guarantee
We know buying anything when you're struggling takes energy you barely have. That's why we offer hassle-free returns—no questions asked. Your mental health journey shouldn't come with buyer's remorse.
30-day return window • Free returns • Full refund
We're not here to tell you "good vibes only." We're here because your brain is sometimes an asshole and you deserve a shirt that gets it.
AnxiousButAwesome exists because mental health merch is either toxic positivity or clinical sadness—nothing in between. Created by Chris, who's been living with anxiety and depression since his early 20s, these designs are therapy breakthroughs turned into shirts you'll actually wear. We donate 10% to NAMI because talking about mental health is nice, but funding real help is better. If you're tired of pretending you're fine, welcome home.
FAQ's
1. Do you actually donate to mental health?
Yes. 10% of all profits go directly to NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness). We're not here to profit off struggle—we're here to support real mental health advocacy. NAMI provides free support groups, crisis intervention, and education for millions of people. Your purchase makes a real difference.
2. What if I don't like my shirt?
We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. We know buying things when you're struggling takes energy you barely have. If the shirt doesn't make you feel more understood, return it free. Your mental health journey shouldn't come with buyer's remorse.
3. How long does shipping take?
Orders ship within 2-7 business days (we use Printful for premium quality printing). You'll get tracking info as soon as it ships. We print on-demand, which means no waste—just what you need, when you need it.
4. Are these designs actually made by someone with mental health issues?
Yes. I'm Chris, the founder, and I've lived with anxiety and depression since my early 20s. These aren't corporate wellness designs—they're breakthroughs from 15+ years of therapy, translated into shirts. Every design comes from real lived experience, not a marketing team.
5. What's the quality like?
We partner with Printful, an industry-leading fulfillment company, to ensure premium quality. Soft, durable fabric. Eco-friendly, water-based inks. These are shirts you'll actually want to wear, not cheap merch that falls apart after one wash.
6. Can I suggest a design idea?
Absolutely! Some of our best ideas come from our community. Reply to any email or DM us on Instagram with your idea. If we turn it into a shirt, you'll get one free. We're building this together.
