Was interviewed by Bloomberg news reporter today concerning high cost of OCD med. I will let you all know if any of my stuff gets included in final piece. He found me through my mental illness blog. I have an orb on here about mental illness as well if any of you want to check it out. Yay! Mental health FTW!!!

Although this series can be hard to watch at times, the way in which they deal with mental illness and the stigma around it is amazing.

I LOVED THIS BOOK!
This book was absolutely brilliant. I don't think I've ever seen a book deal with mental illness so well.

Watched Michael Clayton again last night. Great movie with an unexpected and touching portrayal of mental illness delivered superbly by Tom Wilkinson. Must-see.

Unhealthy
Mental illness is no joke and I felt this made a bit of a mockery of it. The concept while interesting was poorly executed and everyone was blamed for her mental illness. It honestly triggered so many of us who do suffer or have dealt with people who suffer. I cant put into words how much was wrong with it.

"She touches me like no other poet. Pretty rare that mental illness does help a writer, but for her, it was inseparable from her greatness."

It has some decent twists and a real purpose beyond simply scaring, but it stumbles frequently.

Great depiction of mental illness that feels like the same universe as Taxi Driver takes place in. (0 more)
The awkwardness of the dancing Joker is a bit heavyhanded. (0 more)
