Caught in my BurbleTop Rated "Your neighborhood misanthropic, buxom, bondage-positive, bipolar, bisexual, flying, loquacious hedonist." She is trying to get a VNS implant, which is unusual since so far they've only been used experimentally for treatment-resistant depression (they are FDA-approved for epilepsy) and not bipolar since it theoretically could trigger mania. She writes descriptively about horrific depression, so it's easy to see why she's considering a VNS implant as an option. The outcome should be interesting. Preview Website -

DBSA President Sue Bergeson's Mental Health Blog Exactly what it describes. The Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance's elected leader keeps a seldom-updated but informative blog with topics ranging from bipolar irritability to spirituality to research and community news. It's not an especially personal blog, but she does infuse it with anecdotes that make her posts vivid and accessible. Preview Website -

Furious SeasonsTop Rated Depending on your perspective, Philip Dawdy is either a whistleblowing hero or provocative conspiracy theorist. Whether inspiring or annoying, he's unquestionably a talented writer. (He's done some terrific investigative blogging about Zyprexa, for example.) With thinking and rethinking, it's likely you'll agree with some views and reject others, just as he does. He discusses his own experience with bipolar disorder as well. If you like to be challenged and are keen on good rants, this blog is tops. Preview Website -

John McManamy's Share PostsTop Rated John is not only known for his writing on bipolar spectrum disorders research, he's received high honours for it. This year he was awarded a Mogens Schou Award for Public Service, joining an exclusive and prestigious list of honourees that include professor of psychiatry/author/bipolar overachiever Kay Redfield Jamison, family psychotherapy researcher David J. Miklowitz, and the Stanleys of the Stanley Foundation (a major research funding source). John does things a bit differently online. Although he keeps a blog it's mostly relegated to personal stories and recipes while his most astute, well-researched writing is delivered in McManamy's Depression and Bipolar Weekly, a subscription-based email newsletter. Eventually its articles become publicly archived at his static web site McMan's Depression and Bipolar Web. He also wrote a great book that distilled a lot of that knowledge, Living Well With Depression and Bipolar Disorder. The blog keeps everyone current what he's working on. Preview Website -

MilligramTop Rated This is a sharp and witty blog that at times has been challenging to continue to follow because it keeps moving! (Brad, its author, has assured us this URL will redirect to wherever he decides to move to next, though.) Brad's posts are an absolute treat, brilliant and hilarious. Brad's machine-gun sarcasm sprays widely and may offend just about anyone in any stance eventually, and since he's Canadian it's hard for non-Canadians to tell when he's being serious. Take your dose of Milligram with a grain of lithium salt and try not to choke on it as you laugh. Preview Website -

The Trouble with SpikolTop Rated A fantastic blog by the personable and candid Liz Spikol. She posts frequently on bipolar news items culled from the mainstream media (and reader contributions) with a special interest in prison reform and related mental health legal issues. A career journalist, she's got an instinctive affinity for the blog medium. Maybe most importantly, her personal experience with bipolar provides a perspective some blogs lack. The Trouble with Spikol takes a pragmatic view of mental health issues, looking at consumer activism as well as medical advances and humanizing it all. Although the news items are sometimes grim, Liz infuses her blog with lightness, warmth and humour. Preview Website -

Time for Your Meds A lesbian psychiatric nurse who has bipolar, "Crazy Tracy" depicts life from both sides of the gurney. Her blog is personal, emotional and powerfully written. With severe bipolar I, Tracy is often hospitalized or recovering from an episode. Her descriptions of manic perceptions and depressive despair are harrowing and real. Unusually (at least in the blogosphere), she's a proponent of ECT, having undergone many courses of it. Preview Website -
