I hate s.p.a.m. I really do. Not the edible kind of s.p.a.m. Until I went vegetarian, I actually kind of liked that.
No, I’m talking about the gazillion s.p.a.m. comments I get here at Mental Health Notes.
Scary sexual stories. Links to buy free drugs. Offers to deposit some Englishman’s two million pound check in my bank […]

Hmm…some of the post titles here at Mental Health Notes almost seem as if someone else has taken over this blog, haha. This is brain-related, I promise.
Anyway, ladies: If you’ve been keeping up with the Mental Health Notes Goin’ to the Chapel series to get some help reducing stress while you plan - and carry […]

Anybody seem the psychoanalyst finger puppets from Uncommon Goods?
I’m not really sure what their purpose is, aside from mere entertainment (or sucking up to that difficult psych professor during Christmas), but one commenter points out the set “certainly adds a new terror to compulsive masturbation.”

If you missed Wednesday’s post about Prescription for Change, the Consumers Union petition to the FDA to make it easier for consumers to report side effects of medications, I highly recommend checking it out.
In other drug news, the AstraZeneca Patient Assistance Programs now have a total of three “AZ & Me” prescription assistance programs (particularly […]

Or, soccer, for American readers.
I love Saturday Sanity.
Not only does it give me a chance to recognize all the important mental health-related news I discover throughout the week (that, for one reason or another, I don’t have time to talk about in depth), but it also gives me a chance to let you all know […]

This week’s Saturday Sanity includes Mental Health Notes updates as well as mental health-related news around the globe.

Last Sunday, I launched a new, hopefully permanent series here at Mental Health Notes called Brain Break. Unsurprisingly, the idea is to give our brains a break. Check out the announcement post and let me know what you […]

Or, perhaps, our brains need a break. However you want to see it.
I’ve decided that, from now on, Mental Health Notes will take a break from all things mental health-related on Sundays. Yeah, I know - Mental Health Notes is a mental health blog. I’m a rebel, what can I say.
Constantly talking - and reading […]
