A multicultural mental health podcast about neurodiversity. I have bipolar 1 with mixed features, generalized anxiety, complex-PTSD, and hypersomnia. I try not to let bipolar define who I am. I also suffer from irritable bowl syndrome and a fear of belly buttons. I like babies, pets, ghosts, Japanese food, and Coney Island. ——— Contact: https://linktr.ee/Ihavebipolar Instagram: @ihavebipolarpodcast Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ihavebipolar/support
