Interesting mental health journals

Here are a few journals I recommend following. At my university office I enjoy the luxury of full electronic access to these journals, but almost everyone should at least be able to find on-line abstracts (brief summaries) of articles from each journal. Browsing through some of these will give you a general idea of what's going on in research. There might be a few of these journals you will want to follow in more detail; for this I recommend a monthly trip to a local university library.

I may add to or modify this list over time.
