Hi folks,

We're putting together the top 10 mental health/psychology/psychiatry news stories/research of 2006. These are stories, news or research that you believe have real long-time or significant impact beyond something in-the-moment.

We're gathering opinions from a variety of sources and will include our results on Psych Central on Monday.

If you'd like to submit your idea for a story or research study that you think qualifies, either reply to the forum or email me privately.

Thank you!
DocJohn

I hope you include something about the soldiers with PTSD.

I think this article addresses some of their crisis. Also, there are related NPR links listed at the bottom of that page, too.

Thank you so much for posting the NYT article on DBS. I was going to suggest it too!
