I’ve incorporated virtually all the links you’ve suggested on my blogroll. Keep them coming!
An aside: NPR has Susan Lori Parks doing a spoken-word poem right now for Obama and it is, quite possibly, the most embarrassing thing I’ve heard in a long time. I feel obliged to like it, but it’s crap.

Liz Spikol was born in Philadelphia sometime in the 20th century. She started writing about her experience as a person with mental illness in 1999, while employed at Philadelphia Weekly as the paper’s managing editor. Aside from serving as that paper’s web editor, music editor, staff writer, senior editor, executive editor and a host of other random roles that she couldn’t make up her mind about, she has also worked as a Spanish teacher, as a Certified Peer Specialist during Philly’s system-wide transformation and as a communications specialist for a prison reform organization. Currently, she works at the Mental Health Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania and writes book reviews for PW. This blog — named one of the Top 10 Bipolar Blogs of 2007 and 2008 by PsychCentral — is about medications, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, SAD (and many other acronyms), mad pride, Big Pharma, celebrities, hospitals, stigma and the recovery movement. And other stuff.
hey! you should check out http://www.theMedMagazine.com! it’s an online satire magazine about bipolar disorder. “This month’s issue covers such matters as wilderness survival on psychiatric medication, whether or not to shoot a porno while hypomanic, and the ups and downs of having a helicopter land on your face.” sweet…
Thanks Liz! You just made my day! Just one suggestion, wondering if you could possibly put it under “Phillygrrl” instead of “My Philadelphia Story.” If not, that’s not a problem. Thanks!
Why do you have “Writhe Safely” listed twice? I think it’s a good blog, too, but not that good. (Is it because of the cuteness of the teddy bears in straitjackets?)
hi liz! thanks for linking to me. i actually have a different URL now …www.yourbipolargirl.com instead of the wordpress.com address you linked to in your blogroll. if you could change that would be great.
happy inauguration day!
