Resources

There are a variety of resources open to you on the web. I suggest if you surf the web you use several different search engines to avoid the bias of any one.

One type of web-site offers tests to help with diagnosis. Here are just some of the available sites:

• www.ADD-Test.com (about attention deficit disorder)
• www.bipolar.org (about bipolar affective disorder which used to be called manic depressive illness)
• www.mayoclinic/health/depression/MH00103_D
• www.revolutionhealth.com/conditions/mental-behavioral-health/bipolardisorder/
• http://depression.about.com/od/screeningtools/Depression_Self_Tests
• http://panicdisorder.about.com/od/gadbasics/a/quizgad.htm (this is about panic and Generalized Anxiety Disorder)

Some websites may be helpful in augmenting treatment by providing additional education or some interactive therapy that teaches you how to think better by questioning your mistaken beliefs.
