  1. Treatments of physical and mental health are coming together

    Many days, the sheer weight of Iszurette Hunter's clinical depression becomes more than she can lift. She clings to her bed in her South Los Angeles home. Important obligations slide away, including keeping appointments with doctors who are trying to control her asthma and high blood pressure.

  4. Daily Caller reporter to mentally ill: Stop faking it

    &ldquo;The brain is a body part too,&rdquo; President Obama said in a <a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/photos-and-video/video/2013/06/03/president-obama-speaks-national-conference-mental-health">speech Monday</a> in which he urged Americans to embrace those struggling with mental illness. Sounds like an innocent enough proposal, right? Like victims of cancer or diabetes, those whose suffering starts in the brain have a claim to public support.

  6. Five killings at Camp Liberty in Iraq: Calculation or despair?

    JOINT BASE LEWIS-McCHORD, WASH. &mdash; The court-martial of Army Sgt. John Russell concluded Saturday with a military judge asked to decide whether the 14-year Army veteran was deluded by depression and despair as he shot five fellow service members in Iraq, or was executing a calculated plan of revenge against psychiatrists who had blocked his hopes for an early exit from the Army.

  8. Mental illness in youth: a common struggle

    Go to a busy street in your community and count the next 25 adolescents who walk, bike, skateboard, stroll or saunter past. Odds are that two of those 25 kids (8.3% to be exact) would own up to having experienced 14 or more days in the last month that he or she considered "mentally unhealthy," according to a comprehensive report on the mental health of American youth issued Thursday.

  9. 'The Sad Passions' paints haunting tale of loss and art

    Spectral girls and shadow fathers haunt the center and fringes of Veronica Gonzalez Pe&ntilde;a's second novel, "The Sad Passions," but this isn't magical realism. These aren't spirits who visit in the middle of the night. These phantom girls and men are living, flesh-and-blood characters shaped by absence and loss, sickness and dead dreams. "The Sad Passions" knows that half-erased people are more devastating than any ghost.

  10. Ketamine: a potential rescue drug for depression takes a step forward

    For years, physicians have been inching their way to a better understanding of how -- and how well -- the drug ketamine, a "twilight drug" used to sedate some patients before a painful procedure, can lift someone with severe depression almost immediately from the abyss.

  11. Antidepressants: A help or hindrance to those facing surgery?

    About 11% of Americans over age 12 take an antidepressant, making the drugs the most widely used medication in the United States. And with more than 51 million in-patient surgeries performed annually in the United States, a substantial overlap between the two patient populations -- those on antidepressants and those facing surgery -- is a certainty.

  12. Mariel Hemingway urges change to help others find a personal best

    Mariel Hemingway, makeup-free and in sweats, is gorgeous. That bone structure, her cheetah-like build and flowing hair have been familiar for decades. What's disarming is her forthright approach to a rough family history and her determination to live the happy and healthy life that eluded so many of her relatives.
