This is MIAW, or Mental Illness Awareness Week. Try to reach out and tell somebody about mental illness.

Thanks Hartbroken...Maybe I can find something to do in this town. May be seminars or something happening about. There HAS be something on tap for sufferers. It's a week for Gods sake. Must be things other than stuff geared towards health care pros and support folk.

I've been educating people and answering basic questions. I'll be sure and tweet it on Twitter too.
