I am blogging for mental health

This is a day when psychologists around the country are blogging for mental health.

Even in 2011, going to a psychologist carries stigma for too many people in need. There is no reason why mental problems should be less common than physical problems - yet, people can spend lots of time and money treating illusory physical symptoms, and miss symptoms of psychiatric disorders that can be successfully treated.

We live in the best time in human history to get help for psychological distress.
