Over a year ago, I wrote an article for Psych Central about living with schizophrenia. In the beginning, I featured an excerpt from E. Fuller Torrey’s, M.D., excellent book Surviving Schizophrenia: A Manual for Families, Patients and Providers, because it captures the confusion and misinformation about this disorder. “Your daughter has schizophrenia,” I told the woman. “Oh, my God, anything but that,” she replied. “Why couldn’t she have leukemia or some other disease instead?” “But if she had leukemia she might die,” I pointed out. “Schizophrenia is a much more treatable disease.” The woman looked sadly at me, then down at the floor. She spoke softly. “I would still prefer that my daughter had ...

I don’t know the exact number, but it’s quite often. I feel pretty lucky that I get to read so many articles on a daily basis. I read everything from the way people think to the latest research findings. Absorbing all that information not only makes me sound smart at parties, but I feel like I’m learning a lot professionally and personally as well. Take this week’s basket of blogs, for example. Adventures in Positive Psychology’s Joe Wilner discusses the importance of finding “flow” in your career-something my work here at Psych Central has definitely given me.  And although I’m not a parent, Family Mental Health teaches us something about parenting that we could al...

The terrain is chilly and inhospitable, and when mothers speak of it at all, it is usually in guarded terms, or in euphemisms.” You’re obviously on my team of those moms fighting against the stigma of mental illness. But even I shy away at times — like when someone will joke about ...

Unfortunately, dealing with this problem is downright annoying, and the products you use can dry your skin out even more. But just like other skin problems, the products you use on a daily basis can heal your dry skin. Keeping that in mind, here are some beauty secrets for how you can effectively use skin care products to add moisture. Tip #1 – Shower Etiquette Showing in excessively-hot water can cause your skin to become irritated, stripped of oils and dry, so keep your water cooler to avoid irritation. Also, don’t let your fingers become pruned while soaking in the bath tub; instead, only soak for 15 minutes or less. Not only will you see an improvement in your skin’s dryne...

What makes the most difference is selecting a natural skin care product that can generate healthful skin holistically instead of deciding on purely superficial solutions. It is hard to believe that a lot of the most popular elements provide no real benefit.   They are preferred because of misinformation spun by the cosmetic industry. For instance, collagen does nothing when applied to your skin.  The processes used to soften it destroy its bioactivity.  The skin�...

Besides divulging their feelings on everything from Seasonal Affective Disorder to the holidays (Yay or Bah Humbug!), many of our fans have comforted each other, provided tips and shared their own personal stories and life lessons that got them through some tough times. It’s just a reminder of how much we all go through on a daily basis, how important compassion is and how influential a community can have on the lives of individuals. Pretty powerful stuff! With that being said, I’d like to thank our Facebook community, blog commenters, and Twitter followers. And hopefully return the support and love with these fabulous five posts.

Some tweet a lot like Guy Kawasaki and Mari Smith, some have insightful comments like Chris Brogan and Gary Vanerchuk, and other fit a certain niche like Michael Hyatt on Leadership and Matt Cutts on SEO. While these people should be part of anyone’s tweet stream, I would like to share with you five people you may not have heard of, but provide great resources in their particular niche. 1: @Nik_Nik: Nicole Nicolay is one of the top bloggers in the Real Estate field. She posts to My Tech Opinion which is a technology blog for Real Estate Professionals (and anyone interested in the newest technology). She also tweets out great content on a daily basis and is just a fun person to fol...

Sometimes late at night I’ll catch an infomercial or two. It’s a silly obsession I have. One that my husband can’t understand. But it’s not the products themselves that make me intrigued. I’m drawn to what it does to the people who use them. Wouldn’t it be great to make your life perfect with a blink of an eye, a swipe of a magic wand? I think that’s what makes me glued to the screen. There’s something so attractive about the belief that the right food, exercise equipment or program will somehow drastically change your life for the better. But then I turn the TV off. Because I know it’s Hollywood and I know that real life is filled with emotional storms, depression and difficulty. And that real lasting chang...

So imagine how much worse it gets as the economy sputters, people start having shorter fuses and less patience, and domestic abuse and alcoholism concerns rise. Not for patients, but for those who provide them with their health care. In this case, the harm is coming to emergency room (ER) nurses, who have to deal not only with the typical patients who may present at a hospital’s ER, but also a lot more patients that may have a tendency to ignore appropriate boundaries, especially when it comes to physical touch. Emergency room nurse Erin Riley suffered bruises, scratches and a chipped tooth last year from trying to pull the clamped jaws of a psychotic patient off the hand of a doctor at a suburba...

First we learned how it was the end of privacy and no less a man than the head of Facebook (who might have some self-interest involved) noted that the age of privacy was over earlier this year. Of course that’s in Facebook’s best interests to make you believe privacy is “over.” Zuckerberg claimed, without a shred of scientific evidence or data, that lack of privacy is now a societal norm. (Apparently when nobody was looking, Zuckerberg got his Ph.D. and did some sociological or epidemiological research.) Nothing could be further from the truth — privacy is very much a societal norm. It’s also a personal and private decision most of us make on a daily basis. For example: How much do I te...

It will help us see the solutions that were there all the time, hidden from view by our own habits.” -Bruce Greyson, M.D., Professor of Psychiatry, University of Virginia School of Medicine Do you shy away from conflict? Do you tend to over- or under-react during disagreements? Is it difficult for you to rise above a painful problem in a relationship? If so, you’re not alone. We all experience conflict on a daily basis, whether it’s with another person like a co-worker or boss, or in a “triangle” with two other people such as in a family relationship.

The second part of this 3-part documentary airs tonight on PBS, but you should also check out their website which features expert bloggers and clips from the series. Featured in the second episode is Robert Antonioni, a state senator in Massachusetts who faced up to his own depression after the suicide of his brother. His personal experience has strengthened his own position as a key policymaker in Massachusetts. I had the opportunity to interview him. Question: How did the suicide of your brother strengthen your position as a key policymaker in Massachusetts? Robert Antonioni: I gradually came to realize,...
