Julie Halpern agrees to go at her parents request after having panic attacks during her junior year in high school, and so she is taken to Lake Shore mental hospital and placed under high security because she tells them that she has considered suicide. Julie stresses that she didn't learn anything from the adults at the hospital, but rather from the other patients, most of whom were boys. She talks about the sexual frustration that patients experience because they are not allowed to touch each other, and the resentment she feels towards her parents. This zine is all text, but the cover depicts photobooth photos.
