Change of address

Based on counsel with a few friends (thanks Ian and Sa'ad in particular) I've opted to split my mentalism stuff away from the more formal writing.

I'm not sure whether it's a cognitive distortion or not, but it's definitely been a concern of mine that were any potential employer to check out my blog in order to assess my writing ability, they'd have the opportunity to read everything else. I feel a little uncomfortable with the fact that my aim with THIS blog is to help explode a few myths about mental illness, help educate people, and help make such disorders more socially 'acceptable'. It doesn't feel altruistic to then purposefully make my blogging anonymous.

Alas, as I learned in the inter- and intra-personal behavioural communications parts of my degree, there are way too many barriers to communication and misinterpretations possible to run that risk. Expectancy theory, Halo/Horns Effect, and good old fashioned bigotry and discrimination, amongst others. We wouldn't be human without them.

Apologies to anyone who'd signed up to follow the blog and will now need to do so again.
