Mental Health Week

The first week in May is Mental Health Week! The Canadian Mental Health Association has some good information about depression and other mental illness. (I list depression obviously because I have it, but there is information on stress, eating disorders, anxiety, psychosis, and all the rest as well.) It is a good site to help better understand what the different mental illnesses are and answers some basic questions about them. It also has some resources about employment and education, as it connects to mental illness. On a less official note, I have been meaning to share this site for a while. It is pretty random, but I find it really provides some really good concrete advice and tips for helping someone with depression. There are then links all around that site that provide further information and advice.
