Back in the old days before I took a break from blogging, I had a healthy list of blogs I read on a regular basis. Sadly many of them are gone for various reasons. I read once that the average lifespan of a blog is two years, so I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. Since […]

Stigma Fighters Guest Post
Recently I was given the honor of being asked to submit a guest post to Sarah Feder’s excellent blog Old School/New School Mom. Sarah’s blog runs a series called Stigma Fighters which features real life stories about people living with mental illness. You can view my submission here: Bradley S. From her blogs bio, Sarah […]
Blog For Mental Health
When I started this blog in 2008, I did it for my sanity…I did it for me. I was a complete mess, I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and I was not properly medicated. I needed some creative outlet to express what was going on in my head – my feelings, lack of self esteem, […]
What Is The New Name For This Blog? Contest Winners Announced
I was overwhelmed and honored to have over 100 blog names submitted. I originally planned to go with something more professional rather than it sounding like a personal blog. On the other hand, my writing is usually pretty light-hearted and I felt like the name should reflect that. Torn between each, my mind went back […]
Time Is Up
Time is up. No more entries accepted for the Name My Blog contest. Thank you to everyone who solicited ideas. I’m overwhelmed that I received well over 100 ideas. This is going to be difficult because I would have an idea in my head of what I wanted and then I’d read a couple of […]

The Name Game: Win A Prize
It’s time to play the name game! I’m considering changing the name of this blog. One reason is I hope to post more frequently about mental health news and information rather than the focus to be all centered on me. Oh. I’ll keep posting about my personal exploits, I’m way too self-centered to let that change, […]
The Most Influential Blogger Award
One of my favorite blogs is Vic Briggs’ A Writer Adrift, so I was honored last week when Vic bestowed upon me the Most Influential Blogger award. I normally don’t accept awards from fellow bloggers, but I’m making an exception because it came from Vic, and I especially like the questions she asked. The […]

Sonya asked me to be a guest blogger covering the topic of living with bipolar disorder; I was happy to oblige. You can find my post today on her blog […]
