I answered a question just now about someone who was getting run down, and I always feel better when I am not living alone. There is some point in eating proper meals at proper times, but I cannot be bothered with it when I am alone.

Could it be that good cooking could solve a lot of mental health issues, in particular depression and anxiety?

I am an LMSW in NY State. I wish to begin a private practice. How do I become a mental health provider for some of the insurance compies?

As a Social Worker, I am looking for better ways to engage clients with severe mental health dx’s (schiophrenia, bi-polar, paranoia, etc.) to get them interested or involeved in their care. Any suggestions of approaches? Also what do u find helpful when trying o speak to a client wxperiencing delusions/hallucinations?

I am really interested in mental health. Movies about depression, bipolar would be preferred but any will do.

I am interested in becoming a psychologist but recently have heard about the field of mental health counseling. I can’t find any info on how the field of psychology and mental health counseling are different. People in both fields work in the same places, with the same patients, use the DSM IV, know about all of the same disorders, know how to conduct assessment and therapy. How are the two fields different?
