Psych Week on Discover Health Channel


The Discovery Health Channel is doing a one week series on mental health issues May 2-7.

I am thrilled. There is so much misinformation and stigma attached to mental illness especially with children. I excited about the public awareness they will be bringing to these misunderstood diseases.

Here is the schedule in Eastern Time:

Sunday: Anxious @ 9 pm
Enraged @ 10 pm

Monday: Woman with 15 Personalities @ 9 pm

Tuesday: Born Schizophrenic @ 9

Thursday: Bipolar Mysteries: Families in Crisis @ 9

Friday: Hoarding, Buried Alive @ 9

I am really looking forward to watching Bipolar Mysteries on Thursday night. It focuses on children and one child and family featured is a family from a blog that I read. I have watched the clips for the show and I see a lot of Jada's behaviors there. If you have a chance to watch, please do. You can get a bird's eye view into the lives of families dealing with mental illness.
