The Homunculus

steve_icon_medium.jpgThe Omnibrain is a psychology graduate student at an online university. He hopes that the three weeks and $29.95 that he is spending on his Ph.D. will get him a job at a Tier 1 research university. Do online universities have postdocs? Ok...just kidding, The Omnibrain is a real graduate student at a real school somewhere in the continental United States - or maybe Europe.

This week's feature is an interactive video (a file I can't embed). What a Difference a Friend Makes, from the anti-stigma mental health web site of the same name by SAMHSA. From the transcript:

Angela: I think this is the hardest thing I ever had to deal with.

James: Do you want to talk about it? You don't have to go through this alone.

Angela: These past couple of months have been super hard. You know, sometimes I don't feel like myself. Like I'll never have a normal life again.

Sarah: Wow, Angela - that does seem really hard.

James: Yea, that does sound pretty rough.

Caption: What would you do? Change the subject or encourage her to tell you more?

If you select "change the subject" it tells you why she needs to talk and continues the conversation.

Also on the site, a 30 second PSA from the campaign that can be embedded (and linked). Share it with your friends.
