Have you ever felt the crushing weight of doubt when every day is a battle with your own mind? In this episode, Gabe (who lives with bipolar) and Dr. Nicole (a board certified psychiatrist) cut through the BS and get real about staying on track with bipolar treatment. They dive into moments when giving up seems like the easier option and Gabe recalls a painful wake-up call from a friend who wasn't holding back their anger — a moment that ignited a drive to prove everyone wrong. Dr. Nicole breaks down why even the smallest victories, like getting out of bed or planning a future getaway, can mean everything. With no sugarcoating, they explore the raw truth behind why fighting isn't just for the dark days — it's a constant, everyday challenge. This episode is for anyone who's ever wondered how to find the strength to keep moving forward when life feels overwhelming. “I did not want to lay down and die. My core philosophical values and belief systems is that this is all there is. Whatever I do with it, that's my life. That will be how I'm remembered. That is what people will see. Whatever joy or suffering or pain or happiness or success or laughter or connections, this is all there is. And if I just sit at home and do nothing, then I will just be remembered as the guy who sat at home and did nothing. And I don't want to be remembered that way.” ~Gabe Howard, Host Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning writer and speaker who lives with bipolar disorder. He is the author of 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!

Blue Origin, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos's space tourism company, completed its latest spaceflight on Monday with a six-member all-female crew that included pop singer Katy Perry; CBS Mornings host Gayle King; and Lauren Sánchez, an author, TV host turned philanthropist and Bezos's fiancée.They were joined by activist Amanda Nguyen, ex-NASA engineer Aisha Bowe and film producer Kerianne Flynn on the suborbital flight, which lasted less than 11 minutes.King defended the Blue Origin mission in an interview with Entertainment Tonight on Tuesday after hearing criticism from people she knows, likes and “considers friends.”uaydarius Davis, a former 4-star recruit from Skyline High School in Dallas, Texas, was arrested and charged with burglary, domestic abuse and battery by strangulation, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by WFAA. Davis, who played college football for Jackson State University, Texas Southern University and most recently Southern University, according to his player bio on ESPN.com, was arrested in Tulsa, Okla., after video footage showed him choking a woman until she lost consciousness, according to the affidavit.Coachella ticket prices are around $599, to experience headliners like Lady Gaga, Travis Scott, and Post Malone. But how are fans paying that in this economy? Thanks to payment plans, those steep costs are becoming increasingly manageable. This year, around 60% of general admission ticket buyers used Coachella's in-house payment plan, which allowed fans to reserve tickets for as little as $49.99 upfront. The remaining balance was typically spread over three months—a model reshaping how festivals are marketed.

Why is schizoaffective disorder so often overlooked — even by mental health professionals — and how does it relate to bipolar disorder? In this episode, Dr. Nicole Washington sits down with guest host Kit Wallis (aka SchizoKitzo) to discuss Kit's life managing schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type. Kit shares her decade-long journey through multiple diagnoses, from cyclothymia to bipolar I, before finally receiving the correct diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder. Kit explains why this diagnosis finally made sense and how she educated herself on her disorder. If you've ever wondered about the blurry lines between bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and schizoaffective disorder — or just want to hear a powerful story of self-advocacy — this episode is for you. Cold Open Transcript:  Dr. Nicole: Some people will tell me that their voices are not all bad, and they don't necessarily want to get rid of them. Kit: Oh, man. That's a can of worms. That is a can of worms. When I was telling my psychiatrist that I was experiencing religious delusions, and I went on antipsychotics to get rid of the god who hated me, but not necessarily for the voices who helped me so much. I ended up losing the others and I think about the voices that I don't hear anymore all the time because I miss them that much. We have a guest host (Don't worry, Gabe Howard will be back!) for this episode: Our host, Kit Wallis, who goes by SchizoKitzo, is a content creator who advocates for schizoaffective and bipolar disorders. She uses long-form videos on her YouTube channel and short-form content on platforms like TikTok and Instagram. Her content centers around her personal experience with schizoaffective disorder and often includes deep dives into research topics regarding mental health. Kit was diagnosed with the bipolar type of schizoaffective disorder in late 2020 and has struggled with symptoms since she was in middle school. Schizoaffective disorder is a mental health condition where someone experiences symptoms of schizophrenia--such as delusions and hallucinations--but also symptoms of a mood disorder--either major depression or, in Kit's case, bipolar. Realizing there was a lack of schizoaffective advocates, she decided to start her SchizoKitzo project to raise awareness for this complex condition. The mission of SchizoKitzo is to raise awareness of schizoaffective disorder and all of its aspects, from the mood side to the psychotic side. Kit works to bridge the gap between life and science so she can help break the stigma around mental health. Our host, Dr. Nicole Washington, is a native of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where she attended Southern University and A&M College. After receiving her BS degree, she moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma to enroll in the Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine. She completed a residency in psychiatry at the University of Oklahoma in Tulsa. Since completing her residency training, Washington has spent most of her career caring for and being an advocate for those who are not typically consumers of mental health services, namely underserved communities, those with severe mental health conditions, and high performing professionals. Through her private practice, podcast, speaking, and writing, she seeks to provide education to decrease the stigma associated with psychiatric conditions. Find out more at DrNicolePsych.com.

Ever wonder what happens when two complex mental health conditions collide? In this episode, host Gabe Howard, who lives with bipolar disorder, and board certified psychiatrist Dr. Nicole Washington, peel back the layers of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and bipolar disorder, challenging the clichés and misconceptions that have long overshadowed these conditions. Using humor, candor, and expert insight, they share personal anecdotes and surprising research that illuminate the hidden battles behind intrusive thoughts, relentless rituals, and shifting moods. This conversation dives deep into how misinterpreting symptoms can lead to confusion and missed diagnoses — making it a must listen for anyone seeking clarity on the comorbidity of these two conditions.   Whether you're navigating these challenges yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode invites you to rethink what you know about OCD and bipolar disorder. “It's very difficult to have an episode about OCD and bipolar disorder because they're two unique illnesses that present in very unique ways. And I'm not sure what it looks like when they blend together. You may or may not have it. The things that you're describing as OCD may very well just be personality traits or just part of bipolar disorder. So I want to ask you very specifically, is there anything unique about OCD and bipolar disorder put together that our audience needs to know that our listeners should be aware of or concerned about?”~Gabe Howard, Host Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning writer and speaker who lives with bipolar disorder.

In this week's episode of PSA: The Mental Health Podcast, Izzy teams up with special guest Alyce Rose for an unfiltered conversation on race, masculinity, grief, and group identity. This Mental Man Monday deep dive unpacks three trending and controversial stories dominating headlines and timelines alike. First, actor Malik Yoba, best known for his role in Why Did I Get Married, recently stated that he no longer identifies as Black, choosing instead to describe himself as "non-white."

Alyce, who has first-hand Greek experience, pushes back hard. The conversation also reflects on the recent hazing-related death of Southern University student Caleb Wilson and what this says about accountability, tradition, and the mental toll of belonging.This episode is real, thought-provoking, and layered—perfect for listeners navigating identity, cultural pressures, and emotional growth in today's world. Listen now and join the conversation.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/p-s-a-the-mental-health-podcast--5520511/support.

Many people with bipolar disorder experience trauma — either from external events or even from the disorder itself. In this episode, Gabe Howard, who lives with bipolar disorder, and Dr. Nicole Washington, a board certified psychiatrist, dive into the deep waters of managing trauma with bipolar disorder. They cover the differences between trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), debunking common misconceptions. They explore how experiences like suicidal episodes, hospitalization, job loss, and manic behavior can leave lasting emotional scars and why it's important to manage them. Most importantly, they discuss how to validate your experiences, communicate with loved ones and medical professionals, and take steps toward healing. If you've ever felt dismissed or struggled to explain how bipolar-related trauma affects you, this episode is a must listen. "People with bipolar disorder have trauma because of it. So much of this is driven from the fact that people aren't taken seriously. I want to say, as a person living with bipolar disorder, it is real. Bipolar disorder caused you trauma. You are traumatized because of your experiences with bipolar disorder." ~Gabe Howard, Host To learn more -- or read the transcript -- visit the official episode page.

The Hazing From Hell, LA Frat Kills Another Student By “Accident” Authorities in Baton Rouge have announced two more arrests in the death of Caleb Wilson, a 20-year-old Southern University student who died after being repeatedly punched during an alleged off-campus fraternity hazing ritual. Police said Tuesday that 25-year-old Kyle Thurman and 28-year-old Isaiah Smith have been charged with felony criminal hazing in connection with the fatal incident. Wilson, a junior studying mechanical engineering, died in late February. Last week, investigators arrested 23-year-old Caleb McCray on charges of criminal hazing and manslaughter. Police allege that McCray punched Wilson four times before the pledge collapsed, became unresponsive, and appeared to experience a seizure. Surveillance footage reviewed by law enforcement shows Smith removing Wilson from his vehicle and taking him to a hospital. According to a police arrest warrant affidavit, the group initially told medical staff that Wilson had collapsed while playing basketball at a park, then left before officers arrived. Baton Rouge Police Department Chief Thomas Morse Jr. said Wilson died as a “direct result” of the hazing. Smith, who held the title “Dean of Pledges,” was allegedly in charge of overseeing the ritual. Authorities say he turned himself in on Tuesday. Smith's attorney, Franz Borghardt, emphasized that his client is not accused of making physical contact with Wilson and that no one was aware of any underlying medical conditions the student might have had. “This was a freak accident; we're not talking about force-feeding alcohol,” Borghardt said. “To be sure, everyone in that fraternity cares about Caleb. Our hearts go out to the Wilson family.” While both Smith and Thurman allegedly participated in punching some of the nine pledges, they are not described in police affidavits as having hit Wilson. The hazing took place at a warehouse owned by Smith's father, Todd Smith, who has not responded to requests for comment. Thurman could not be reached, and no information about legal counsel for him was immediately available. Phillip Robinson, McCray's attorney, said his client is innocent and urged the public to refrain from judgment. In Louisiana, hazing can be prosecuted as a felony under the 2018 Max Gruver Act, which carries penalties of up to a $10,000 fine and five years in prison when serious injury or death results. Organizations and educational institutions may also face penalties under the act. Omega Psi Phi, the fraternity Wilson was pledging, could face civil penalties.

Authorities in Baton Rouge have announced two more arrests in the death of Caleb Wilson, a 20-year-old Southern University student who died after being repeatedly punched during an alleged off-campus fraternity hazing ritual. Police said Tuesday that 25-year-old Kyle Thurman and 28-year-old Isaiah Smith have been charged with felony criminal hazing in connection with the fatal incident. Wilson, a junior studying mechanical engineering, died in late February. Last week, investigators arrested 23-year-old Caleb McCray on charges of criminal hazing and manslaughter. Police allege that McCray punched Wilson four times before the pledge collapsed, became unresponsive, and appeared to experience a seizure. Surveillance footage reviewed by law enforcement shows Smith removing Wilson from his vehicle and taking him to a hospital. According to a police arrest warrant affidavit, the group initially told medical staff that Wilson had collapsed while playing basketball at a park, then left before officers arrived. Baton Rouge Police Department Chief Thomas Morse Jr. said Wilson died as a “direct result” of the hazing. Smith, who held the title “Dean of Pledges,” was allegedly in charge of overseeing the ritual. Authorities say he turned himself in on Tuesday. Smith's attorney, Franz Borghardt, emphasized that his client is not accused of making physical contact with Wilson and that no one was aware of any underlying medical conditions the student might have had. “This was a freak accident; we're not talking about force-feeding alcohol,” Borghardt said. “To be sure, everyone in that fraternity cares about Caleb. Our hearts go out to the Wilson family.” While both Smith and Thurman allegedly participated in punching some of the nine pledges, they are not described in police affidavits as having hit Wilson. The hazing took place at a warehouse owned by Smith's father, Todd Smith, who has not responded to requests for comment. Thurman could not be reached, and no information about legal counsel for him was immediately available. Phillip Robinson, McCray's attorney, said his client is innocent and urged the public to refrain from judgment. In Louisiana, hazing can be prosecuted as a felony under the 2018 Max Gruver Act, which carries penalties of up to a $10,000 fine and five years in prison when serious injury or death results. Organizations and educational institutions may also face penalties under the act. Omega Psi Phi, the fraternity Wilson was pledging, could face civil penalties. A spokesperson said the organization is cooperating with authorities. The campus chapter of the fraternity has been suspended, and Greek life organizations at Southern University have been barred from taking on new members for the remainder of the academic year, according to President Dennis Shields.

Bipolar doesn't just impact mood — it can take a toll on your sex drive, too.

In this candid episode, Gabe Howard, who lives with bipolar disorder, and Dr. Nicole Washington, a board certified psychiatrist, dive into why some friends and family romanticize manic episodes, ignoring the struggles beneath the surface.

I miss how you used to be. Dr. Nicole: Yes. Gabe: You know, obviously I'm going to cut you off, you ignorant fool, is something you can say back. Dr. Nicole: [Laughter] Not if you want them in your life. I mean, if you're ready to cut it off, say what you need to say and walk away, in very dramatic fashion. But if this is a relationship that you want to salvage, I think then you have to be willing to put up a little bit of vulnerability, as hard as that may be.
