YOU ARE NOT ALONE - A companion online community discussion board for The Mental Illness Happy Hour podcast with Paul Gilmartin

I have a hard time tearing anyone down that has the guts to go on a podcast and talk about topics like ones that are discussed on MIHH. Mental illness takes many forms, has many manifestations, pick your own way to say "there's lots of ways issues come out" and place it here too. It seems ...

I have a phone interview tomorrow for a job that makes great sense to me, and will ...

Thanks.

As well as Atypical and seasonal depression. was officially diagnosed in my late twenties, but looking back on it, I've been affected in one way or another since the ti...

love the podcast, its nice to know that you're not alone - we all hope we're not, but since most people still don't like to talk about it, its nice to see people who will gladly do so. me in a nutshell......help, I'm in a nutshell (curls into a ball) alright, no more Austin Powers jokes, at least ri...
