About Me

This post is, by way of introduction, about me.  I am Hugh Farrell.  Prior to 2003 my given name is JEFFREY DEVITT.  So, if you are looking for me, read this first.  I will explain a little bit about myself.  I attended Thousand Oaks High School, and I live in my home county of Ventura in the City of Oxnard.  I entered the Mental Health system in 1993 when I was told to stop returning to my childhood home.  I eventually stopped returning to my childhood home when in December of 2006 an inappropriately buried baby girl with Down-syndrome was discovered.  Without the “problem” for me as an advocate of the baby, and the obvious problem the mental Health people might have had, I did eventually stop returning there.  I guess now I live in Oxnard. With my knowledge about this kind of problem, I should be returning to Oxnard until after a time I will probably have to stop another return here as well.  I would sure like to figure out where to go next. Since I am getting quite good at this returning business, I am obviously open for ideas as to the next place to go where I might apply the remedy similarly as in the case of my childhood home.  Okay? Hugh.

There are reasons for the Mental Health affiliation.  The most obvious reason for it is that I have a Diagnosis: Schizo-affective Disorder.  This is the one that makes sense.  The other one which is devastating is Schizophrenia.  The most notable historical person who had Schizophrenia was Paul Cezanne.  I know a lot about Mental Illness.  In fact almost everything I have done on the Internet is devoted to understanding Mental Illness.  Would you like to know more about me? Would you like to know more about Mental Illness?

So, this is my introduction.  By the way, I am that sort of person who has been extremely successful in Mental Health.  As sure as any major success stories include a huge amount of resources I am no exception.  I have made my career in Mental Health.  If you have ever had any Mental Health experience, you would recognize my type of person.  I have nothing to be ashamed about.  I am literally working at the area of my talent.  I am proud of my achievements though they are largely a mystery.

Thank you for your interest.  Hugh.
