Blogging in B Minor

For quite some time now I have wanted to organize my research and documentation in such a way that I could share it online. I have come up with a tool that allows me to do that but I am still working out the bugs. So, this is what I will call a “beta release”. You’ll find the library by clicking on the “Library” tab at the top of the site. Once you access this page, you’ll find a listing of publications, research articles, documents pertaining to diet, nutrition, etc. and templates I have created that have helped me with my treatment and have helped to educate me through this journey. My hope is that you will benefit from the research that I have done. It is my way of giving back.

I had to look all over the place to get my hands on this information. My thinking is if you can find a lot of what I had to find in what seemed like hundreds of locations on the internet, than I have met my objective. Couple that with hopefully speeding you along in getting you up-to-speed with what you are facing, then I have hopefully helped you and have given back. That’s my goal. For me, that was one of the most intimidating aspects of the beginning moments of this journey – information overload. What information do I really need. So, I went out and sorted through a ton of information and was able to get what I felt was the information I needed.

For now, there is certainly plenty there to keep anyone busy – particularly if you are on the front end of this journey. Feel free to download the docs. Keep in mind that some of this information is copy-written as noted in the documents. Therefore, this is meant for personal use only. There are plenty of other docs that I put together based purely out of research and pulling all of that together and aggregating it in a single document. The point? Don’t mass produce this stuff and be a tool! Use it to help yourself and to help you be your own advocate in your recovery and treatment.

I will be adding to the library when I have time. Also, if you have any issues with the library just know that it’s an initial release here and I’m still working out some issues with the downloading function and some other aspects of how the system is working.

I hope you find value in this!
