Earlier today, “Jane” shared her experiences soliciting the help of the Amen Clinics for her son. Her story highlighted - from a mother’s perspective - some of the same grief, despair, frustrations, and successes lots of people go through as they try to find a balance among psychiatrists and therapists, good mental health treatment, and […]
I recently met a very insightful woman (with whom I’ve had some just as insightful conversations!) and through her I’ve learned about the Amen Clinics, one of which provided her family with help during a troubled time for her son’s mental health.
You see, the Amen Clinics are brain imaging centers that offer “brain SPECT imaging, […]
For some reason, there wasn’t really any mental health advocacy news to report this week. Ah, it’s just as well. The sun is shining and my dog wants to play.
Enjoy your Saturday!
This week at Mental Health Notes, I kept things mostly light. Tickets for Broadway’s revival of Equus went on sale, and UK mental health […]
This week at Mental Health Notes, I recommended checking out John La Puma and the book he wrote with Rebecca Powell Marx, Chef MD’s Big Book of Culinary Medicine, as well as I Dose, which claims to be “the perfect Binaural Beats experience.” I also introduced you to Frank Calloway and the Cover America Tour, […]
Back in June, I entered a giveaway at Hope Wilbanks’s Weighting Line and won a copy of Chef MD’s Big Book of Culinary Medicine by John La Puma, M.D. and Rebecca Powell Marx. (I also won some chewing gum from Extra thanks to my random knowledge about The Biggest Loser, but, I digress.)
I initially entered […]
I received an interesting email about some folks down under (i.e. in Australia) who are working together to develop an online self-help program for people with bipolar disorder.
The program is MoodSwings, and the creators of MoodSwings (a hefty group of psychiatrists and psychologists with experience in both bipolar disorder and online programs) are currently seeking […]
Boy, when I fall into a blogging slump, I really fall into a blogging slump, huh? This is the second week in a row I’ve not offered up more than one post a day here at Mental Health Notes and, honestly, that blows.
However, in my defense (what little bit of defense I have), I have […]
Jenifer Lewis has bipolar disorder. I had no idea. I’m surprised I didn’t run across it when I wrote Celebrities and Bipolar Disorder or Female Celebrities and Mental Illness.
In any event, I did run across it, when I ran across Broadway Star Battles Bipolar, a Health Talk with Dr. Manny video from FOXNews.com.
During the video, […]
I mentioned this in last week’s Saturday Sanity, but I wanted to cover it more thoroughly today.
The Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance (DBSA), along with Dave’s Spark: Start Something and Facing Us (both of which are “offshoots” of the DBSA), are sponsoring the Facing Us 2008 Music Contest to celebrate the “creative spark of individuals […]
I know they’re pretty, but it’s time to get caught up on the goings on in the world of mental health!
This week at Mental Health Notes, it was back to business as usual after my three-day vacation. In addition to helping you update your calendars with mental health awareness weeks for July, I also passed […]
