Gateway Putz: 70% of Americans are mentally ill.

The latest from the 20-percenters. Anyone who believes that this woman [Palin] could not perform the duties of President adequately must have some kind of mental illness, which is likely liberalism.

Fewer than three in 10 Americans think Sarah Palin's qualified to be president, according to a new national poll - the least of any of the...

Jeffrey Bastien

Dear Editor: I cannot help but wonder how sentencing Jeff Bastien to what could amount to a life sentence for mental dysfunction serves the community. While not minimizing the incidents he was involved in I feel strongly that this is what happens when Mental Issues collide with the justice system. Jeffrey is a perfect candidate for a mental hospital. Jeff Bastien is not a degenerate, nor trash, nor...

Dave's Progress. Chapter 49: Anticipated or Actual: How Real is Stigma?

I have been thinking recently about how the stigma surrounding mental ill health directly affects me, and I have come to the conclusion that, despite suffering certain unfairness early on in my illness, from friends, family and I have to say, mental health services themselves, the discrimination I now face seems less "real", in that it is anticipated, rather than actual. In fact, it could...

Mary Weiland Hopes Her Memoir Helps Someone “Connect”

Back in May, I told you about Mary Forsberg Weiland’s then-upcoming memoir, Fall to Pieces: A Memoir of Drugs, Rock ‘N’ Roll & Mental Illness. The book has since released and there’s been an increase in attention paid to that particular Celebrity Psychings post, which is sort of unfortunate because, well, it doesn’t exactly offer any “news.” This morning,...
