The concept permeates our company culture and thus the focus of our website. Fortunately, we've found three fantastic people who believe in that concept to share their personal experiences and knowledge on the HealthyPlace website. All are award-winning mental health bloggers who will be writing, doing audio posts and videos, providing insights into their worlds and hopefully passing on something to make your world a little better.   1.. ADDaboy! adult ADHD blog by Douglas Cootey   2.. Bipolar Vida by Cristina Fender   3.. Nitty Gritty of Anxiety by Aimee White You can find them everyday on the HealthyPlace Mental Health Blogs homepage. Of course, we have a blogs _link_ at the top of every page on the site. I encourage you to drop by, read their posts, leave your comments and since we're just getting started, share their urls with others you know. If you have a moment, you can also watch Aimee and Douglas, who were recents guests on the HealthyPlace Mental Health TV Show. Click the on-demand button on the p_layer_ and watch the shows on Social Anxiety and ADHD and Depression. Alternative Mental Health Treatments About 15 years ago, I remember writing an article _title_d Alternative Treatments for Mental Health! Right?! Generally speaking, most people, especially the medical establishment, didn't take the subject matter seriously. Today, the HealthyPlace Alternative Mental Health Community has over 300 pages of content on herbal treatments, vitamins, and complementary therapies to help treat the symptoms of bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, anxiety and other mental illnesses. The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine reports that 36% of U.S. adults use some form of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). Through research, books, and yes, even personal anecdotes, what we've come to understand is that there is a place for alternative approaches to mental health treatment.  Treatments such as self-help, diet and nutrition, stress reduction and art therapies all have a place in the healing process. Our guest on this week's HealthyPlace TV Show talks about this in great detail (see below). Dr. Patricia Garberg even discussed treatments that will greatly diminish or alleviate some of the side-effects of antidepressants.
