Search for a popular free blog site

Hello!
I am searching about a popular blog site where as many peopel as possible could read my story.
Is there a way to emphasize its popularity by adding some advertising on it?
Did someone do sth like this before- wand what was the result?

www.madinamerica.com The bloggers on this site include people with lived experience, peer specialists, psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, program managers, social activists, attorneys, and journalists. While their opinions naturally vary, they share a belief that our current system of psychiatric care needs to be vastly improved, and, many would argue, transformed.

Add me to the list Based on Everything that I have been through personally, and everything I have seen in others I can say that the system needs to be transformed for the better from ground up.


IMO, the best way to start is by having everyone share their personal views on the subject. Blogging is a great way to do that. I should consider it too considering I have volumes of stories to tell.

Hello!
I did not sy, I am NOT from America.
I tried in local media, lawers, etc, but was ignored.
That is why I decided to go further.

The consequence is that is "am" "permanently unemployable", becuase they (psychiatrists!) "KNOW" that I, ALTHOUGH I did not mke any professional mistake till now (except seeing my coleque making it, btw;) ) will make a professional mistake in the future. (Funny, my ex coleque who did make a mistake is still working;) )

Another consequence is that my kid might be stigmatised for having "deeply metnaly sick mom- to have deep mentha ilnmess in the family".
(All say it can't happen,,even not in future, but can it??? )

MANY THANKS FOR ALL YR EFFORTS TO HELP!
I REALLLY APPRECIATE THIS!

Wish U all all the luck, be any of you menthaly ill or not:)

Don't bother going to Mad in America. It's a big barrel of hypocrisy.

If you want to amuse yourself, go and look at the posting guidelines. Basically, Whitaker, who is considered sacrosanct by just about every survivor, stipulates as a condition of posting on his website the worst kind of fakeness and hypocrisy, such as pretending to be friends with people you hate, and suppressing understandable skepticism about the motives of some of the psychiatrists who comment on that website in respect of their sensitivities.

It is people like Whitaker who are the guarantors of an Orwellian future. He justifies his ridiculous moderation policies on the pretext that he is trying to create a dialogue that might lead to change, seemingly oblivious to the fact that such a dialogue is pointless unless it involves people with real administrative and legislative clout.

Instead, this pointless dialogue, which largely takes place within the limits imposed by bourgeois mental health workers, is little more than show. None of the people on that site occupy the positions where, on this issue, most of the power is concentrated. For this reason, they don't have the power to make any big changes, not that they want to make any big changes because, as I've already said, most of it's just show, a way of working off guilt without actually doing anything.

Whitaker's a phony.

He's been exalted to such firmamental heights in the imaginations of his votaries in the survivor movement, anyone who criticizes him inevitably incurs the wrath of these people, who seem to believe that unconditional reverence is his due.

I am one visitor to this shrine, erected for the worship of an idol sculpted from human flesh, who fails to see what all the fuss is about.

A lot of the other forums I tend to agree and see it the same way. Not to much can be said and its more geared toward having people follow their medication regime then being able to vent or share opinions. You get scolded frequently and banning is a given for anyone who is critical of psychiatry.

I will admit I like this sight the most. IMO the rules are reasonable and respectful. I find that you can speak your mind well within reason without being censored which above all is the most important thing. Not only that but I find people who have the most to share come here without being silenced. The stories, ideas and theories behind it all are here spoken clearly.


Forums that allow free speech make the most progress, in addition to everyone feeling validated. I know being here I have made a lot of personal progress for the better.

But it's so much fun messing with all the liberals on that site.

The left is littered with gun-control advocates who employ armed bodyguards , minimum-wage-hike proponents who pay staff less than the minimum wage or nothing and one of my favorites is school voucher opponents who send their kids to private schools !

The lefties go on and on about global warming and the environment wile the big govt they love so much is the number one consumer of energy and uses megatons of paper made from trees to make all that red tape.
