Wilkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome...

Nowadays, society seems to be at an odd sort of crossroads: even as more people than ever are going to therapy and getting medications, or struggling through new-age 'diets', stigmas still exist about everything from depressive episodes to being underweight/overweight to even just having the ability to ask for help.

Self-help, and help from your peers, obviously isn't a substitute for real medical advice and I'd rather not find out that someone who suffers from say, chronic pain from a severe back problem took a look at a website about exercises to try to alleviate the pain and threw out their back. But maybe you're just looking for some help on the side, maybe some more actual information beyond rumors you've heard, or you're trying to fix a problem before deciding to go to a professional. There's plenty of reasons for looking up tips on self-help, but the bottom line is: it's a good step.

It's probably safe to say that anyone looking for self-help has either a lot of questions, or something they want to change about themselves, and if you're already at the point where you've found this page, that's a good sign. Hopefully you can find something useful in the links I've gathered in the journal posts.
