It’s all over the news, so by now you’ve all probably heard about the notorious “D.C. madam,” Deborah Jeane Palfrey, committing suicide. I first learned of it when I opened my Yahoo! email account last night and was greeted with this Yahoo! News article: Police: ‘D.C. madam’ kills herself in Fla. coastal town.
There’s something […]
Nice thought, Albus, but, yeah screw that! my mind’s not all that organized just yet.
Currently, I am 26 years old and most everyone in my family has lived beyond the age of 90.
I always thought I’d have to be tricked into the grave, too.
However, according to the Blue Zones Vitality Compass quiz, my mental health […]
Not only is April Cancer Control Month, but it’s also National Poetry Month!
As a writer, I can’t pass up the opportunity to share with you a list of poets with mental illness. These are just a few of the men and women who lived with mental illness and still managed to do what they loved […]
Did you know April is Cancer Control Month? It’s true, it’s true, and in honor of that we bloggers here at the b5media Health & Wellness Channel have decided this month’s theme day should focus on cancer.
Rather than try to choose just one topic pertaining to cancer and mental health - or going the obvious […]
Today is No Smoking Day over in the UK. *waves across the ocean to Dr. Hsien-Hsien Lei*
In honor of that, I wanted to write about the mental health risks associated with smoking - you know, because the physical health problems are pretty well covered. However, I was unable to find much reliable and concrete information […]
…so is the sanity of our Saturday. Or, um…so are the Saturdays of our sanity? But, it’s just one Saturday?
*sigh*
So much for my attempt at a clever spin on the “Days of Our Lives” Macdonald Carey voiceover.
Enjoy the this week’s Saturday Sanity folks!
Diane Dardon, the Northern Illinois University Lutheran Campus Pastor, writes to Mental Health […]
Last Saturday, I posted my thoughts about the six white crosses placed on “snow hill” at Northern Illinois University.
My thoughts (which, in that post, were centered around Steven Kazmierczak’s alleged mental illness and his name being left off the sixth blank cross) unfortunately drew a negative reaction from one of Kazmierczak’s victim’s relatives. I attempted […]
By now you’re all familiar with Steven Kazmierczak. If you’re not, here’s a brief summary: On Valentine’s Day (February 14, 2008), Steven Kazmierczak shot and killed five people at the Northern Illinois University before redirecting the ammunition and taking his own life, bringing the total number of deaths to six.
Six. Six people died. It’s important […]
Whether you’re feeling competitive or interested in using marijuana to manage your chronic pain, this week’s Saturday Sanity is sure to deliver!
Contests abound! Wednesday I told you about that “lively woman” Kristen King (haha, my uncanny ability for corny plays on words never ceases to amaze me) and her contest to win a $50-Target gift […]
What does a NAMI National employee, an Oxford University graduate, Heath Ledger, and Britney Spears have in common? They’re all highlights in this week’s Saturday Sanity - and, if I do say so myself, today’s batch of sanity-worthy links are well worth zoning out in front of the computer for a couple of hours.
If you […]
