Mental Health Twitterers…

What’s the deal with mental health twitterers?  All they do is post excerpts and links from dry, boring psychiatric articles that would only interest doctors.  I want to hear about your experiences with your mental illness.  How you feel.  What medications you take.  What being mentally interesting means to you.  Not that “80 percent of all schizophrenics have unhealthy eating habits and poor nutrition from spending all their money on cigarettes” or “studies show that mentally interesting people have a higher risk for suicide”.  DUH!   It is tiresome and I am tempted to go on a unfollow spree today.  I have gone on quite a few these past few weeks.  First, it was the Follow Friday people.  Then, it was the constant link linkers.  The dealsplus people got me in a stir and had to unfollow scores of those people as well.  I guess I am just getting tired of Twitter.  I am not very good at this social media thing other than blogging it seems.
