STIGMA: APPROACHING WELLNESS IN SPITE OF IT ALL
Many mental health consumers have witnessed a barrage of news stories and dramas depicting mental illness in an unfavorable light over the past month or so. Because these shows were frightening to many viewers, stigma seems to be on the increase in the aftermath. What can we do? We can try to change it--but by proving those who stigmatize wrong. In groups, we might choose to start a bipolar band or direct or act in a bipolar play. We may even start a bipolar softball team. But as individuals, we can make a far greater contribution. Read about some current trends in mental health policy and then learn the importance of looking towards wellness by reading how one nurse found her own path toward balance and was able to reach her potential. By striving toward less extreme behavior, we can better steer clear of the mental health and criminal justice systems, and at the same time, rebuild our lives through healthy habits, taking meds, avoiding alcohol, caffeine and drugs, and taking advantage of social skills and illness and behavioral management resources.

The relationship between Biochemistry & Aggression (Part 1)
The relationships between biochemistry and neurochemistry with violent human aggression is investigated. Biochemical studies strongly support a positively correlated relationship between testosterone and aggression. A mediating relationship between cortisol and testosterone is apparent. Neurochemical evidence is not as clear. However, a significant relationship between serotonergic functioning and aggression is evident. Causal relationships have been difficult to infer, but, are somewhat supported.
