Welcome to Mental Health @ Home by Ashley L. Peterson!

Mental health begins at home – Your home base, your centre, your place of strength and support.

 

 

 

This blog takes a no-holds-barred look at a variety of issues related to mental health.
It draws on my dual perspectives as a mental health nurse (and former pharmacist) and person living with treatment-resistant major depressive disorder.  

The goal is to raise awareness about mental illness, educate around a wide variety of mental health issues, and create a community where people can feel comfortable speaking openly about mental health without fear of judgment.

 

Under the Blog menu above you’ll some of the recurring series on MH@H.
My emerging blogger series features new up and coming mental health bloggers.

Under the Resource Pages menu, you’ll find all kinds of useful resources, including A New Blogger’s Guide to the WordPress Community.

I post weekly mental health book reviews, often featuring books by fellow bloggers.  

 

Check out what’s new in the Mental Health @ Home Store!  It’s got my ebooks, several mini-ebooks, and lots of free downloadable resources.

I’m also a contributor to The Silent Scream: An Anthology of Despair, Struggle, and Hope by Maria Alfieri, available now on Amazon.

I write on several sites besides MH@H – details are in the About section.

 

I’m a strong believer in speaking up against stigma, and in educating ourselves so we can make the best possible choices.
Together, we’re a force to be reckoned with.
Let’s Stop Stigma!  I’m excited to have you join me on this journey!
