The Cookie Monster may love to snack, but is he bulimic? Does Oscar
the Grouch suffer from oppositional defiant disorder? Yes, says the Sweet
Briar College psychology department, which has analyzed every character
on Sesame Street to find that each one suffers from not-so-sunny
neuroses. Click here for a humorous psychological look at beloved
childhood icons.

When Trillian (not her real name) was diagnosed with bipolar
disorder, she found it hard to locate the information she needed to cope
with her illness. So she created a Web page to provide other bipolar
sufferers and their friends and families with important facts and sources
of support. Since then, one page has grown to several, which feature
psychology jokes and a diary recounting her day-to-day experiences with
her illness, among others.

Get computer-assisted therapy anytime you need it, thanks to family
therapist Howard Wallman, M.A. His site allows you to analyze yourself by
asking you to input personal information about your childhood and your
feelings, which are then repeated back to you the way a live therapist
would. Take a free trial to see if this form of cybertherapy is for
you.

If you think science and spirituality are like church and state,
then you haven't tapped into the new psychological movement that examines
how religion influences people's daily lives. Consider this comprehensive
site your primer. Creator Michael E. Nielsen, Ph.D., professor of
psychology at Georgia Southern University, offers message boards, journal
links, resource lists and up-to-the-minute religion news without straying
from pure science.
