Psychiatry Articles on the Web
There have been a number of articles I've wanted to mention lately.
In the New York Times:
When the Right To Bear Arms Includes the Mentally Ill
In the Wall Street Journal, set in our own Maryland:
For the Mentally Ill, Finding Care Grows Harder
and
Representative Tim Murphy Instroduces Mental Health Legislation
From the StarTribune:
Minnesota Security Hospital: Staff in Crisis Spreads Turmoil
In Atlantic Monthly, a poignant story about one man's battle with anxiety:
Surviving Anxiety
And finally, on Salon, it's from nearly two years ago, but I ran across Linda Gray Sexton's account of being suicidal and found it to be moving:
In the shadow of my mother's suicide

"For the mentally ill, finding care grows harder" so the response to this in Maryland (and other states) is AOT. Yeah, that makes sense.
