This is just a quick note to draw your attention to a newly added link. I came across Jonathan Andrew's "4th Avenue Blues" quite randomly on the internet. Jonathan writes regularly on his life after being diagnosed with Schizophrenia. Mental well-being is something not regularly appreciated by the general public; it's almost a kind of fear born of an uneasy realisation that we are all hovering close to the edge on the inside (what percentage of the general population do you imagine experiences some of the symptoms of Schizophrenia?). Mental health has been an issue for me in the past, and some of my family members have been seriously affected by various clinical disorders...the tragic thing is when you can see great intellect and potential in someone, and then see it hindered by a problem which the rest of the world finds it difficult to put a finger on.
So, here's hoping you pay Jonathan's blog a visit and come out a little more considerate of others...
