I’ve seen 5 psychiatrists in 3 different cities over the years for my bipolar disorder, and each one left me with a different experience. More bad than good.

In this video, I’m sharing my honest take on every psychiatrist I’ve had—what worked, what didn’t, and what I learned along the way.

If you’ve ever struggled to find the right doctor, I think you’ll relate.

If you have bipolar and you’re struggling to find the right meds or the right psychiatrist, this video just might give you the tools to find both.

I used to do this a lot before I got a handle on my bipolar. A smile can hide so much.

Do I still do this? Yes. Do I do it as much? No, but I still do. We all do to a certain extent.

Getting a handle on bipolar doesn’t mean no more symptoms ever. It means more stability than episodes, at least to me.

In my 6 years of talking about having bipolar publicly, I’ve only had 1 person tell me I shouldn’t. That person was a family member so it did give me pause.

The reason they gave: people don’t understand. They will think you’re sicker than you are.

That didn’t seem like a good reason to me.

I’m speaking out to do exactly that. To help people understand.

I’m trying to make the uncomfortable feel more comfortable. Change isn’t always comfortable.

I’m going to live my life out loud and with joy. I will never be small again.

“It’s 7 am. I just woke up and found out I messed up my entire day before it even started.…”

In this vlog, watch me go through a day when I forgot to take my Seroquel (antipsychotic) and had to manage hypomania warning signs—all while balancing being a mom, a wife, and working full-time.

I hope sharing a day in my life helps others managing bipolar feel less alone and shows that we all make mistakes.

Pro-tip: How we handle our mistakes can make all the difference. 🙌🏼
