Buenas días amigos
Just a quick note to let you know that Confessions of a Serial Insomniac will be hosting the Blog Carnival of Mental Health for the month of June. The theme is hope and despair; contributors are free to interpret this in any way they wish.
The Carnival, for the uninitiated, is basically a month-long version of This Week in Mentalists as seen weekly on the late Mental Nurse and now on <a href="The Madosphere. The only major difference (aside from the timeframe involved) is that bloggers volunteer their posts rather than have them chosen by editors. In short, it’s basically a voluntary round-up of posts written on a specific theme for a entire month.
You can contribute to this Carnival in two ways; either leave a link to your post in the comments of this entry, or email me with your post and/or URL.
Entries should be submitted by no later than midnight (British Summer Time) on 29 June. The Carnival will be published here by midnight on 30 June. Anyone interested is free contribute as long as their post is (a) related to mental health and (b) in some way related to the aforementioned theme.
If you have any queries, please give me a shout. Otherwise, happy blogging 
Hasta luego
Pan <3 xxx

Hope and despair, sounds like a day in my life repeated 7 days a week. I’ll have to try to write something.
Hi there. Written something for the carnival, if you’re interested to read http://trichquestions.wordpress.com/2011/06/26/hope-and-despair-that-whole-poetry-thing/. It’s about something that’s caused me equal amounts of grief and happiness throughout my illness. Hope you like it.
Hope, despair and cockroaches, but not in that order: http://cbtish.wordpress.com/2011/06/27/cockroaches/
