In this episode, Gabe Howard (who lives with bipolar disorder) and psychiatrist Dr. Nicole Washington unpack what the research actually shows, why supplement quality is inconsistent (and sometimes downright sketchy), and how side effects — even with “natural” products — are very real. In short, they dig into the science, hype, and hope surrounding omega-3 supplements. Listener takeaways: why omega-3s may help with certain bipolar symptoms — especially depression the risks of using supplements as a substitute for prescribed treatment how to spot high quality fish oil (and avoid bottles full of fillers) why “natural” doesn't automatically mean “safe” Plenty of people in the bipolar community are desperate for alternatives to pharmaceuticals, and fish oil often gets framed as a safer, side-effect-free solution. If you've ever wondered whether popping a fish oil capsule could replace your meds — or just help you manage life with bipolar disorder more smoothly — this is the episode you don't want to miss. “If it's powerful enough to fight bipolar disorder, it is powerful enough to potentially have interactions. One of the things that I'm always fascinated about in the bipolar community is when we say things like, hey, this thing is so powerful, it will treat bipolar disorder, which we know to be dangerous and damaging, but it also is so safe that it won't cause any side effects or interfere with any other medications or any other organs or anything. It's like it can't be both.” ~Gabe Howard, Host Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning podcast host, author, and sought-after suicide prevention and mental health speaker, but he wouldn't be any of those things today if he hadn't been committed to a psychiatric hospital in 2003.Gabe also hosts Healthline's Inside Mental Health podcast has appeared in numerous publications, including Bipolar magazine, WebMD, Newsweek, and the Stanford Online Medical Journal. He has appeared on all four major TV networks, ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX. Among his many awards, he is the recipient of Mental Health America's Norman Guitry Award, received two Webby Honoree acknowledgements, and received an official resolution from the Governor of Ohio naming him an “Everyday Hero.” Gabe wrote the popular book, "Mental Illness is an Asshole and other Observations," available from Amazon; signed copies are available directly from the author with free swag included!

What makes an everyday hero? It's not fame, recognition, or a grand stage—it's a willingness to step into hard moments with faith and courage, even when fear is present. This week on the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, hosts Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose dive into what it looks like for Christian families to raise daughters who are ready and willing to answer God's call in both ordinary and extraordinary circumstances.  Drawing inspiration from the life of missionary Elisabeth Elliot, they unpack her powerful reminder: “The secret is Christ in me, not me in a different set of circumstances.” Through this lens, Rachael and Natalie explore how courage is cultivated bit by bit in everyday life—whether that's a girl finding the bravery to stand up for a classmate, conquer stage fright, or speak out in the face of injustice.  You'll also hear the Raising Godly Girls Minute from AHG Founder Patti Garibay, reminding parents that courage is internal and often unseen until a moment of decision comes. The hosts then reflect on real-life examples, including the inspiring story of an AHG Girl Member who risked her own safety to rescue sailors in danger—earning the prestigious AHG Lifesaving Award. These stories illustrate how small steps of obedience and trust in God prepare girls for moments when extraordinary courage is required.  Rachael and Natalie offer three practical ways to equip your daughter for courageous living: letting courage build through small challenges, doing a post-game recap exercise to reinforce victories over fear, and modeling humble prayers that show reliance on God's strength. Together, these practices shape a girl's heart and prepare her to become one of the everyday heroes God is raising up for His Kingdom.  As you listen, you'll be encouraged to see courage not as a rare trait, but as a spiritual discipline—something that grows in your family's life as you lean on God's power, trust His timing, and walk in faith.  Scripture Referenced in This Episode:  1 Samuel 17  Judges 6–7  Exodus   Esther 1–4 (esp. Esther 4:14)  Acts 18   John 16:33   1 Samuel 17:45–50   This Week's Reminders:  Courage builds bit by bit—every small victory matters.  A “post-game recap” helps your daughter recognize God's faithfulness in action.  Humble, open-handed prayers prepare her to trust God with the unknown.  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com. To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

Story Transcript:Sv: Det var en kylig hösteftermiddag på Stockholms Centralstation.En: It was a chilly autumn afternoon at Stockholms Centralstation.Sv: Löven dansade i vinden utanför, en påminnelse om den föränderliga årstiden.En: The leaves danced in the wind outside, a reminder of the changing season.Sv: Linnea klev av tåget och drog upp halsduken kring halsen för att skydda sig mot den bitande luften.En: Linnea stepped off the train and pulled her scarf tighter around her neck to shield herself from the biting air.Sv: Hon var på väg till sitt studiegruppmöte och ville inte vara sen.En: She was on her way to her study group meeting and didn't want to be late.Sv: Men just då, något fångade hennes uppmärksamhet.En: But just then, something caught her attention.Sv: En man, klädd som gatuartist, rörde sig märkligt bland människorna vid plattformen.En: A man, dressed as a street performer, moved strangely among the people on the platform.Sv: Hans gitarr låg till synes övergiven bredvid honom.En: His guitar lay seemingly abandoned next to him.Sv: Det var Viktor.En: It was Viktor.Sv: Han brukade ofta spela där, men idag verkade han rastlös.En: He often played there, but today he seemed restless.Sv: Linnea såg honom böja sig ner och verka rota i en äldre dams väska.En: Linnea saw him bend down and appear to rummage through an elderly woman's bag.Sv: Hennes hjärta slog snabbare.En: Her heart beat faster.Sv: Hade hon just bevittnat ett försök till stöld?En: Had she just witnessed an attempted theft?Sv: Hon tvekade, osäker på om hon skulle agera.En: She hesitated, unsure if she should act.Sv: Det var då hon fick syn på Olof, en man som hon ofta hade sett sitta på en bänk nära spår 5.En: That's when she spotted Olof, a man she often saw sitting on a bench near track 5.Sv: Hon visste ingenting om honom, förutom att han verkade observera allt och alla.En: She knew nothing about him, except that he seemed to observe everything and everyone.Sv: Med beslutsamhet i stegen närmade hon sig honom.En: With determination in her steps, she approached him.Sv: "Ursäkta, men jag tror jag såg något misstänkt," sa hon och pekade mot Viktor.En: "Excuse me, but I think I saw something suspicious," she said, pointing towards Viktor.Sv: Olof, vars grå hår antydde hans visdom, såg ditåt där hon pekade.En: Olof, whose gray hair suggested wisdom, looked in the direction she pointed.Sv: "Den där mannen?"En: "That man?"Sv: frågade han och studerade Viktor noggrant.En: he asked, studying Viktor closely.Sv: "Du kanske har rätt.En: "You might be right.Sv: Men vi bör vara försiktiga.En: But we should be careful.Sv: Ibland kan situationer se annorlunda ut än vad de verkar."En: Sometimes situations can look different than they seem."Sv: Tillsammans bestämde de sig för att följa efter Viktor på avstånd.En: Together, they decided to follow Viktor from a distance.Sv: De såg honom närma sig tågplattformens kant.En: They saw him approach the edge of the train platform.Sv: Hade han stulit något eller inte?En: Had he stolen something or not?Sv: Linnea kände en tyngd på sina axlar, ansvar att ingripa om nödvändigt.En: Linnea felt a weight on her shoulders, the responsibility to intervene if necessary.Sv: Precis när de skulle närma sig Viktor för att konfrontera honom, vände han sig plötsligt om.En: Just as they were about to approach Viktor to confront him, he suddenly turned around.Sv: Han hade ett oväntat mjukt uttryck i ansiktet.En: He had an unexpectedly soft expression on his face.Sv: "Jag såg den äldre damen tappa sina nycklar," förklarade han och höll upp dem.En: "I saw the elderly lady drop her keys," he explained, holding them up.Sv: "Jag försökte bara ge dem tillbaka."En: "I was just trying to return them."Sv: Linnea och Olof andades ut samtidigt.En: Linnea and Olof breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.Sv: Med skammen som en röd rodnad på kinderna tackade Linnea Viktor för hans omtänksamhet.En: With shame as a red blush on her cheeks, Linnea thanked Viktor for his thoughtfulness.Sv: Olof, lättad, kände en viss stolthet över att ha hjälpt till att klargöra situationen utan att dra förhastade slutsatser.En: Olof, relieved, felt a certain pride in having helped clarify the situation without jumping to conclusions.Sv: När Linnea äntligen fortsatte mot sitt studiegruppmöte, reflekterade hon över dagen.En: As Linnea finally continued towards her study group meeting, she reflected on the day.Sv: Hon hade lärt sig en viktig läxa om att inte döma för snabbt.En: She had learned an important lesson about not judging too quickly.Sv: För Olof hade mötet med Linnea återfört lite av den spänning och mening han hade saknat sedan han lämnade polisyrket.En: For Olof, the encounter with Linnea brought back a bit of the excitement and meaning he had missed since leaving the police profession.Sv: Och i den fullsatta stationen var det som om allt plötsligt kändes lite varmare, trots den kalla höstluften.En: And in the crowded station, it was as if everything suddenly felt a little warmer despite the cold autumn air.

What happens when binge eating disorder and bipolar disorder collide? Research shows they co-occur in as many as one in four cases — and yet, many people living with both conditions feel completely alone. In this episode, host Gabe Howard shares his personal journey of living with bipolar disorder and binge eating disorder, including how food was his form of self-medication.Board certified psychiatrist Dr. Nicole Washington breaks down the clinical side: what binge eating disorder actually is, how it's diagnosed, and why treating it alongside bipolar disorder can get “tricky.” Listeners will learn: signs and symptoms of binge eating disorder (beyond overeating) why stability with bipolar disorder often makes binge eating easier to manage unique treatment challenges — including why the only FDA-approved medication for binge eating disorder may be destabilizing for people living with bipolar disorder Gabe and Dr. Nicole rip the lid off the shame, secrecy, and stigma surrounding binge eating disorder, especially when it coincides with bipolar disorder. With honesty and compassion, they share practical treatment insights, real hope, and a powerful reminder: You are not alone. Whether you're having trouble or supporting someone you love, this episode delivers validation, guidance, and the encouragement you need to take the next step toward healing and living your best life. "I weighed over 550 pounds and I knew that I was unhealthy. But I didn't really see binge eating disorder as a mental health problem because bipolar disorder sucked all the oxygen out of the room. And I was lucky, I did go from over 550 pounds down to the 200 that I weigh now, because I had the right interventions. I treated both bipolar disorder and binge eating disorder. But I imagine that many listeners, they don't realize the connection between these two." ~Gabe Howard, Host Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning podcast host, author, and sought-after suicide prevention and mental health speaker, but he wouldn't be any of those things today if he hadn't been committed to a psychiatric hospital in 2003.Gabe also hosts Healthline's Inside Mental Health podcast has appeared in numerous publications, including Bipolar magazine, WebMD, Newsweek, and the Stanford Online Medical Journal.

What happens when bipolar disorder collides with hypochondria? Is it even possible for someone to have both conditions? In this episode, Gabe Howard (who lives with bipolar) and Dr. Nicole Washington (a psychiatrist) tackle the complex overlap between bipolar disorder and what's often called hypochondria but is now known as illness anxiety disorder.Together, they explore the confusion that comes when symptoms of panic, mania, or depression mimic physical health conditions — and why people with bipolar disorder often have trouble being taken seriously in medical settings. From emergency room misdiagnoses to the fear of “crying wolf” during a health scare, our hosts unpack the stigma and frustration many face when advocating for their physical health.Key takeaways the difference between illness anxiety disorder (hypochondria) and bipolar symptoms why people with mental illness are often dismissed in healthcare how therapy can help reduce overwhelming health fears You'll also hear practical advice on how to tell the difference between anxiety and a medical emergency, the importance of knowing your symptom patterns, and why having a consistent primary care doctor is crucial. Listen now! "It matters whether you have hypochondria or whether mania is driving it, because of your next steps. If you truly have hypochondria, if you really are a hypochondriac, you are worried about being sick regardless of your mood state. So whether you're happy, sad, manic, whatever, this hypochondria persists. If you're only ultra focused on illness in a manic state or a grandiosity state, or with some specific symptom of bipolar disorder. Then it's just the bipolar disorder manifesting itself." ~Gabe Howard, Host Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning podcast host, author, and sought-after suicide prevention and mental health speaker, but he wouldn't be any of those things today if he hadn't been committed to a psychiatric hospital in 2003.Gabe also hosts Healthline's Inside Mental Health podcast has appeared in numerous publications, including Bipolar magazine, WebMD, Newsweek, and the Stanford Online Medical Journal.

What if managing bipolar disorder wasn't just about medication? Too often, conversations around bipolar treatment stop at the pharmacy counter. But what about therapy that helps you process trauma? What about learning your triggers before a full-blown episode hits? What about diet, exercise, creativity, and community support?

Do you feel trapped in a therapy or psychiatry relationship that feels stagnant, unsettling, or just plain wrong? This episode pulls no punches as hosts Gabe Howard — who lives with bipolar disorder — and Dr. Nicole Washington — a board certified psychiatrist — tackle the uncomfortable question most people think about but rarely voice: “How, and when, is it time to part ways with your mental health professional?" This direct and practical conversation cuts through the guilt, the logistics, and the myths about “ghosting” therapists, psychiatrists, and counselors. Dr. Nicole explains when walking away is OK, when to be careful (especially with meds), and why honest communication can actually be beneficial to you as the patient. Gabe brings the patient perspective — what it feels like to doubt care, to fear being “difficult,” and some tips to tell if the problem is the professional, your stage in recovery, or just a bad fit. Takeaways You don't have to explain, but honest conversation is usually the healthier choice. Plan transitions first: “Ghosting” can create dangerous gaps in your care. Ask for records and time your switch to minimize treatment disruption. If you've ever wondered whether you owe the professional an explanation, how to keep medication continuity, or what to ask on day one to avoid a mismatch later — this episode is for you. Expect blunt truth and step-by-step strategies to move on responsibly so your recovery doesn't skip a beat.
