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

I'm a teacher, and I recently just got a long-term sub job in an urban middle school. The poverty rate is significant and it has it's fair share of behavioral problems. During one of my prep periods, it's my job to cover the In School Suspension room teacher on her break. It varies day to day, somet...

So, without going too much into my own story - here's the premise. When I was in elementary school, probably between 2nd and 3rd grade, a kid from my class convinced me to have sex with him. I am also male. He said that we should have "butt sex" and that it would be fun. He said I could pu...

Thanks for your response, oak! I'm still feeling pretty down today, and it really helped to hear someone who's had the same experience. I have the same experience you describe nearly every time I go on facebook and see what some of my acquaintances are doing. Especially people who I was mean to year...

Without getting into the specifics of my life, I just want to vent a little. I go to therapy, I'm on the right path, but these past couple weeks have been down. I'm not looking for advice, just want to share. I've really been enjoying the Nerdist podcast, discovered it through the MIHH. I've been go...

manuel - I'll have to check it out! Other people who's opinions I respect like Dr. Drew (Chris Hardwick being one of them). Maybe it's more the context of that one show I don't like...

Fair enough, all great responses. Dr. Drew really only bothers me on Dr. Drew On Call. From what I've seen of it, it's really just a step away from Nancy Grace. Mostly I'm bothered by his other panelists. It's VERY judgmental, and that's what people want to hear. I feel like people watch Dr. Drew an...

I checked around PBS.org and it kept coming up with an older documentary from 2009.

After a little more digging, I found the website for the doc - http://www.eachmindmatters.org/great-minds-gallery/

They said that after it premiere's on May 30th, they'll have it up there to view.

Any feelings on these two TV psychologists? I usually like Dr. Drew on certain shows, but his "Live on Call With Dr. Drew" is infuriating. Also not a huge fan of Dr. Phil, who seems like he's using his expertise just to humiliate his guests for the sake of entertainment. I also question wh...

In the Ashly Burch episode, Paul mentioned that his podcast was covered by a PBS doc made in California. I'm from the east coast, does anyone know if I would be able to get access to it?
