The Patty Duke Online Center for Mental Wellness is a place of comfort, caring, and compassion, a place to blossom as you read the articles, participate in discussions and follow your individual path to wellness. It is not meant as a replacement for therapy as much as a gathering place to shed the darkness of ignorance and replace it with the everlasting light of understanding.
