While I was at the Johns Hopkins Mood Disorders Research and Education Symposium, I spoke with some of the researchers currently conducting studies for: major depression, bipolar disorder, and pregnancy.
Here are more details and contact information if you are interested in participating. Being part of a study is a wonderful way of contributing toward better knowledge and future treatments of mood disorders.

Great resources you’ve compiled to help research on mental health issues like depression and BPD! Thanks for the post.

Hi Therese. I opened up a blog yesterday http://tarfbp.wordpress.com
I have just started to follow you and having recovered from BPD but still have a diagnosis of Bipolar disorder which I always will have. Thankfully my psychiatrist will treat me without all the medication I previously was on except for the aid of dalmane 30mg for accute insomnia. I’m confident that I can maintain my moods as on the medication I was nothing but completely suicidal having taking at least 80 or more overdoses plus a terrible amount of self-harming.
