IN the far right column of this blog, scroll down a bit and you will see a pretty sparse list of mental health blogs.
Here are some blogs, however recently I discovered them, that have drawn me back:
Pole to Polar: Secret Life of a Manic Depressive
Schizophrenia, a carer's journal
But I want to update the list in the hope of helping find more.
Please leave the name of your blog, if you would like to be included, or any others that you would like to recommend in the comments on this post.
Thank you.

I write about mental health and children mostly.
Thanks for doing this!

This is a great blog by Therese Borchard who wrote the book Beyond Blue about her Depression. She's very earnest in her efforts to stay healthy, and very honest about her struggles

There are a lot of blogs listed in the blogroll of the first site you mention in your list, this is the latest one: http://prescribedhappiness.wordpress.com/
Some will be out of date but worth checking.

Hi,
In my blog I write about my life with Bipolar Disorder and Agoraphobia. It is also like a diary where I chat about the things going on in my life, my moods, work I'm doing with my psychologist and social worker, medication and all sorts of other things! It's at http://mycrazybipolarlife.wordpress.com
Thanks :)
