Well, I've been thinking about starting a blog on mental health issues for quite awhile now. So I figured that now was as good a time as any to start writing. Now this post is basically just to let you know that I will be writing the blog, and to give you some information about myself, for those of you who don't know me.
The plan right now is to write a new post every week to ten days, don't be surprised if that turns into two weeks some times. Don't expect all posts to be the same old boring stuff. Some posts will be on specific forms of mental illness or on treatment, both conventional and alternative. Some will be on issues surrounding mental illness, such as policing or homelessness. And some will just be personal observations or rants, I like to rant sometimes.
So for those that are reading this who don't know me, my name is Chris Rogers, 42 years old and have been waging my own personal battle with mental illness since I was in my teens. I've been diagnosed with schizo affective disorder, depression, and generalized anxiety disorder. And yet somehow managed to survive.
As well as this blog I'm also willing, to the best of my ability, to talk about mental health issues. So if you want to talk, have ideas as to what I should talk about in the blog, or just want to rant yourself, email me at chrisrogers1@rogers.com.
Well hopefully that wasn't too painful for you, it wasn't for me. And now that I've committed myself to writing this thing, you should be reading some more interesting stuff from me soon.
