  • Living with Bipolar, Mania, and Finding Stability

    Living with Bipolar, Mania, and Finding Stability
    Feb 3 2025

    Hey everyone, welcome back to Touching Tornadoes! In this episode, I dive deep into what it’s like to live with bipolar 1 disorder—especially the process of getting diagnosed, the struggle for acceptance (both personal and from family), and the fear of another episode.

    I reflect on my past manic episodes, the crash that followed, and how I’ve tried to manage my mental health with exercise, meditation, and lifestyle changes. I also talk about the frustration of feeling invalidated by those around me and the importance of finding others who truly get it.

    📚 Books I’ve found helpful:

    • An Unquiet Mind by Kay Redfield Jamison
    • Episodes by Kat Alexander & Maya Northen Augelli

    Dead or Dreaming? Unpacking My First Bipolar Mania
    Jan 16 2025
    In this episode I share how I remember the first manic episode I had with bipolar disorder. I try to describe the events that were spiraling me into my first manic episode, from thinking I was dead, to having a cosmic dream. Let me know what you think. It was and is a very confusing time for me, and I am still processing it. Visit my website and blog.
