10 Comics That Can Help You Understand Mental Illness
Nine Graphic Novels and Comic Books About Mental Health
Still, please share if you have more.
PS: why do those articles all have numbers in the title?
I'm actually a big fan of this particular niche sub-genre, so some suggestions I've read include:
Polarity - Bi-Polar Disorder
X-Men Legacy, Volume 1: Prodigal - D.I. Disorder
Kill or be Killed, Vol. 1 - Psychosis (or maybe not?)
Moon Knight, Vol. 1: Lunatic - D.I. Disorder
The Sentry: Reborn - Schizophrenia/Agoraphobia
Batman: The Killing Joke - Psychosis/Unreliable Narrarator

Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic is definitely an option, and it is constantly in must-read graphic novels lists, but I didn't really enjoy it to be honest.
I wonder if a comic featuring Scarecrow would count, since doesn't he use a kind of drug to make people afraid? Would Terrigen mist from Inhumans count? (Not that I want to make anyone read an Inhumans book haha)
I actually had not heard of Marbles before, but it looks really interesting (may have to add it to my list).
I think as long as the story is told via the perspective of someone affected by Scarecrow's toxin, that would fit just fine. And I think if you could find an inhuman book in which the character's perception of reality is altered due to Terrigen exposure that would also work; something about Maximus, Frank McGee, or even Karnak (even though he technically never went through terrigenesis).
Also, any excuse to read any of the new Inhumans books is a valid one.
