Mental Health Blogs
Full Story | Links Archive | Topics:

MIWatch's look at selected mental health blogs.


  • Anxiety Insights

    With links to news about anxiety with informative discussions of professional journal articles, this blog stands out for its content and for the ease of use.
  • Brain Physics
    A resource for obsessive compulsive disorders – eating, anxiety, impulse control disorders – with articles, books, personal stories, and discussion.
  • E Pluribus Media
    This citizen journalism site has several components, including an active blog, book reviews, original reporting, and three distinct series. One of them provides a timeline of events and stories about PTSD in soldiers and is noteworthy.
  • Health-Counterspin
    Emily DeVoto points readers to other health related blogs as well as other information.

  • Intrepid Library Journal

    A thoughtful and well-written blog addressing broad social issues calling itself a "firm voice for the patriotic left."
  • Mental Health Blog
    This blog comes from the UK, and many of the issues discussed here parallel those found in the US: stigma, funding, employment discrimination. A mental health bill in Parliament (2006-07) has focused conversation about human rights, mental illness, treatment, and legal options.
  • The Trouble with Spikol
    Liz Spikol, also the managing editor of the Philadelphia Weekly, writes this blog which often reports about real people and mental illness. She combines a journalistic sensibility with terrific visuals and provocative insights. Well worth a click.
