Psych-Space Is Crazy
I have learned so far that the truthfulness of every website has to be checked, and double checked. Even though I have been on the Internet since the 1990s, I still can be coerced into believing that what I am seeing is a site with legitimate information. That is not always the case. Some of the sites I’ve seen lately have huge grudges to grind against various drug companies or doctors, or both in some cases.
While I would love to make declarations of how this site will never do such a thing; how we would never grind an ax on a company. Well, one can never know what the future might bring. I currently have no ax to grind, and honestly, I’m not much of an ax grinder anymore, anyway. That does not mean, however, that if some horrible information comes out that I will not jump on it like fly on … rotted meat.
Also, there are a large number of sites out there in cyberworld where the writers should be the patients’. I am probably one of them, but I will try to isolate my personal situation from this site, because the success of The Anxiety Report.Com is not up to me. This site is a call to community for all of us who have one of the five annoyingly classified ‘Anxiety-Disorders.’
Let’s list them, shall we?
- Generalized Anxiety Disorder(GAD)
- Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
- Panic Disorder
- Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD)
- Social Phobia (or Social Anxiety Disorder.)
Here is the complexity of the issue, we have five disorders that crisscross one another, and these are all due to something chemical in our brains. No one, psychiatrist or neurologist, knows exactly how, what, or why, this happens. It just does They are looking, and working for us, and so this site wants to make these people familiar faces to us, the patients, and not just a faceless Clinic or just a name from Pharmaceuticus Optimus-Maximus . (Bit of a pun on the temple of Jumpiter Optimus Maximus)
The issues of our disorders are too complex for us to not be involved in some way with those people who work for us in the scientific fields. So there will be some interviews on here.
Why don’t you leave a comment? I love comments. I’m a nice guy, and I even like dogs. I am working night and day posting stories to Topix, where you will notice I am the editor of Anxiety. I go through hundreds of news stories a day, and slog my way through research trying to render it into plain English. O, Muse, send me help! Make someone comment upon my weary efforts. Alas and Alack.
Other than that, have a great day. Peace
