This week the Sanity Squad, four mental health professionals and bloggers, talk mainly about--in a direct fashion--mental illness. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, the bible of psychiatric diagnosis, has been released and the panelists have some fun with the what they think should be in the new edition.
The recent death of former Senator Thomas Eagleton, the running mate for a brief time of George McGovern in 1972--he was forced to quit the ticket after it'd been disclosed he'd been hospitalized for depression--brings about a discussion on health issues of past presidents. Yes, mental health too.
The Sanity Squad consists of Neo-neocon, Shrinkwrapped, Dr. Sanity, and Siggy.

Schizophrenia is an illness of the brain. Scientists believe its symptoms are caused by abnormalities in the transfer and processing of information in the brain. Nerve cells in the brain communicate with each other by releasing chemicals from their nerve endings. These chemicals are called neurotransmitters.
