    Black and Bipolar with Friends
    2021/06/07
    When I first started hearing these voices was in middle school I started to notice these episodes I was having with my mental health was taking a big toll on my body. I reached out to my same age friend about 15 years old to talk to her about the voices to let her know what I was going through. I did not expect a lot to come from it I just wanted to feel heard like I wasn't disappearing. Have you ever felt unheard? Do you have someone special you can share all your fears with?

    This episode me and partner open up about our personal relationship and how the up and downs you can still navigate a relationship with a mental illness. It is not easy being open about being mentally ill but if you do find a partner or friend that can make it safe for you it makes it easier for you to do so. My partner Melissa Nieves Rivera opens up about our tests and trials.

    Black and Bipolar Taking Medication
    2020/08/27
    Have you ever felt unsure of taking medication? Or have you doubted that you even needed help in the first place? I am talking about my first experience with taking medication and how it felt when I thought the people close to me could help me. My doctor took my voice my business partner told me to power through it. Have you ever felt so alone that it feels like you are drowning? You are not alone. There are communities that you can talk to.

    This episode talks about how I navigate through my world while in Quarantine. What were my initial thoughts how did I deal with a psychotic break. It was interesting making this episode because I have come so far with all the work I have done as a Black woman with Bipolar. I am taking steps everyday to overcome the obstacles.
