After spending a decade navigating the highs and lows of bipolar disorder, I had the opportunity to share a platform with fellow mental health advocate Michael Vanzetta on the PiZetta Media Content with a Cause podcast. This conversation sparked deep reflections on the unrealistic expectations I've set for myself and how they have impacted my mental well-being. In the latest episode of the Mostly Mental Mom podcast, I open up about these personal battles, emphasizing the importance of shifting towards a more realistic perspective to better manage the emotional rollercoaster that comes with bipolar disorder. By sharing my journey, I hope to connect with others who might find solace in knowing they're not alone.
Living with bipolar disorder often feels like a silent battle, where reaching out for support is daunting yet crucial. I candidly discuss the challenges of facing these internal struggles, the fear of letting others down, and the liberation that comes with embracing vulnerability. My message to you is clear: you don't have to fight alone. Whether it's finding comfort in the presence of loved ones or joining communities of supportive strangers, there's always someone willing to listen and help.
