Psychotherapy

Published by Pete Prodoehl from 1985?/1986? to 1987 (issues 1 through 12) and then again from 1990?/1991? to 1994 (issues 13 through 24.x?)

Psychotherapy 1 through 12 saw a very limited print run, starting on a high-school copy machine. Print runs were probably less than 20 each issues. The rebirth of Psychotherapy which started with issue 13 saw printing done at Kinko's or Office Depot for a very affordable price. Print runs were probably between 100 and 400. (I'm guessing on those numbers, but I remember many late-nights folding, collating, and stapling.)

Psychotherapy 1 through 12 contained stuff about skating, punk rock, collage art, and some writing.. They were all hand-done with lettering, collages, and various bits combined into photocopy goodness.

Psychotherapy 12 through 24? contained stuff about punk rock, collage art, and some writing. They were done using computers and QuarkXPress and Photoshop and became all nice looking and pretty, but still had collage art in them.

The last issue was sort of a goodbye rant on the futility of the punk scene, which oddly enough, kids from Waukesha really seemed to like.
