Earlier today I wrote about how the 12 winners of the Mental Health America 2008 Media Awards will be honored tomorrow during a luncheon at Mental Health America’s Inaugural Mental Health Promotion and Prevention Summit in Washington, D.C.

I’ve written about obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) numerous times during the last year, and recently one Mental Health Notes reader mentioned the need for a Web site and online chats dedicated to OCD.
Good news! I did some snooping around and found several OCD resources online. Based on factors such as visibility, reputation, and activity I narrowed […]
