  • Not Long Ago

    Content by Mitch Osborne Not too long ago my boss went on this crazy tear to upgrade all the technology in the office. That doesn’t sound like a huge deal until you realize none of the technology have been touched since about the 1960s and it was going to be [...]
  • A Big Step Backwards In Women’s Rights

    I would love to give the man’s point of view on this whole women’s rights thing but I do not think that I am the right man for this. Honestly, I do not understand any of it. I am too much of a pragmatist. I am good with total equality. [...]
  • The War On Women

    As a woman I can’t imagine what my husband thought when I pushed a human being out of my body. I can’t imagine what he thought when I went through a physical transformation from wife to Mom. The throwing up, the discomfort, the pain were all witnessed by him. And, [...]

  • What Is Normal?

    As both scientists and writers nothing drives us to distraction more than someone usurping the use of a technical word and giving it a meaning that it should not have. If you are going to use a word then use it right. Since we are writing about mental health this [...]
  • My Little Hand Pains

    Paul says: Here is a little story for you. Years ago, I was having pretty consistent pain in my hands and feet, more so my hands. I thought that I was arthritic. So I went to the same rheumatologist as Lee. He is a really nice guy who looked at [...]
  • Depression, Bipolar, and GAD

    Number of comments: 2
    This week we are focusing on Mental Health and societal understanding of Mental Illness. We use the terminology of psychopathology in our common vernacular but do we really understand what we are talking about?
