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 […]
There’s less money for your health care, Valentine’s Day isn’t quite over at Mental Health Notes, and you, too, can be an A.S.S.
You still have until tonight at midnight to enter MHN’s Love: It’s All In My Head Valentine’s Day Contest - so get over there and tell me one way you can show love […]
From anxiety levels among religious women to testing for ESP, this Saturday Sanity is sure to teach you something new.
Women Who Stay Religious Less Likely to Have Anxiety Disorder. I’m not a religious person, though I have found that when I’m paying more attention to God and prayer than to the physical world around me, […]
Howdy readers! It’s the first Saturday Sanity since the holidays (most of them, anyway), and I must say it’s a hodgepodge of random updates and tidbits. Hopefully there will be a little something for everyone.
Just a reminder to check out the interesting video posted yesterday, and leave your thoughts!

On Friday, I posted my most recent feelings of frustration with Grey’s Anatomy - namely, the way the writers wrote in a small storyline regarding a man who, to me, seemed to have Body Integrity Identity Disorder (BIID), but blatantly ignored this character both on the show and in the writers’ room.
I am very fortunate […]

From Science Daily article, Same-sex Attraction Is Genetically Wired In Nematode’s Brain, Oct. 26, 2007:
University of Utah biologists genetically manipulated nematode worms so the animals were attracted to worms of the same sex - part of a study that shows sexual orientation is wired in […]
Did anyone watch Grey’s Anatomy last night?
If you know me outside of Mental Health Notes, you know that I’m a huge Grey’s Anatomy fan - or, I was, until the whole Isaiah Washington/T.R. Knight thing couldn’t be resolved without dragging the public into it and abc ultimately giving Washington to the boot. Oh, add to […]
Hiya, lovelies! Bet you’re glad to see Saturday Sanity after this week’s, er…we’ll call it a couple days of hiatus, though we all know deep down I was just too brain zapped - literally - to keep up.
I’m hoping this weekend - well, today, at least - will provide a much needed distraction. I’m attending […]
It’s almost 4 a.m. this Saturday morning; I’m awake a drinking my second cup of coffee. Wouldn’t be too abnormal a situation for me if I had gone to bed at a reasonable hour; however, I went to be between midnight and 1 a.m.
Oh, it would also make more sense if I hadn’t taken a […]
Hey folks! Thanks to Kendra and Laura, I was informed that today kicks off the National Invisible Chronic Illness Awareness Week.
According the to the awareness Web site, “96% of chronic illness is invisible.”
Does mental illness fall into the invisible chronic illness category?
You bet your psych meds it does!
The folks behind NICIAW provide online conferences, informational […]
