As the summer begins to wind down, I'd like to take this opportunity to run a little contest. I hope to run these more regularly , even weekly, as the community grows. These are meant in good community fun, they are not meant as a knock-em down, drag-em out sort of competition, so please take them in the way they are offered (and participate only if you'd like).

Our very first contest is to tell the community, by posting to this thread below, 5 helpful things you learned at Psych Central, either as a member of the community or heck, even elsewhere on the site.

Four random (4) winners will be chosen from the thread's responses, and will receive Down Came the Rain, the touching memoir by Brooke Shields about her battle with postpartum depression + two Exclusive PsychCentral.com Purple Pens! (Your name and address will be required in order to receive your prizes; void where prohibited.)

Enjoy!
