This Week: Mental Illness in the News

February 27, 2015 by Amy White Leave a Comment

Mental Illness news

Last week I debuted the first blog “Mental Illness in the News” round-up. Thank you all for your great feedback; many of the blog readers were very excited about last week’s list!  Since it was so well received, I decided to do it again!

So this week, we again looked for news and other articles that showed the many facets of mental health and wellness; I think we came up with a great list! Please let me know your thoughts!

If you find a great article, blog post or news story that you think should be included in a future round-up, please let me know! Together we can continue to shine the light on mental illness and create opportunities for more open conversation and understanding.

Help us keep mental illness in the headlines by reading and sharing as you feel appropriate.

Week ending February 27, 2015:
