Barack Obama: Photography by Annie LiebovitzI thought of two features today that might be helpful to readers. The first is a practical guide to maintaining privacy when you're looking for online mental health information. The second piece relates to the coping with our feelings about the tragedy that occurred last week at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia.
First, DotCOMSENSE, is a useful brochure that provides a basic listing of some common sense ways that can help you to protect your privacy and assess online mental health information. The brochure was originally developed by the American Psychological Association, but it is no longer available from them. However, you can access it here either to read or download (in pdf format) from Mind, a leading mental health charity in England: Mind.
A second item, which I thought might be helpful to some readers, is a short article just released by The American Psychological Association in an attempt to reach out to college and university students in the aftermath of the Virginia Tech tragedy, suggesting ways for them to manage feelings of distress over that terrible event. Of course, it might well be helpful to a wider audience as well. The article is entitled Tips for College and University Students: Managing Your Distress in the Aftermath of the Virginia Tech Shootings and is available to read or download from The APA Help Center.
