Living with Bipolar I: Brett Stevens on Compassion and Mental Health

You have to find the small wins, you have to trust the doctors, you have to take your medicine and there's breathing, exercise, and little things you can do to help.
Ever wondered what it's like to live with Bipolar I? Brett Stevens, author of 'Crossover: A Look Inside a Manic Mind', opens up about his journey with this often misunderstood condition. In this episode of The Goodness Chick, Brett and host Erin Lawler Patterson dive into the daily realities of managing an invisible illness. They chat about the importance of compassion and kindness, especially in a world where everyone is fighting their own battles.
Brett shares his personal strategies for coping, from taking medication to celebrating small victories and practicing self-care. The conversation also touches on the stigmas surrounding mental illness and how we can all play a part in breaking them down. With the holiday season approaching, they discuss how to handle triggers and difficult emotions during this time of year.
If you're looking to understand Bipolar Disorder better or want to learn how to approach others with more empathy, this episode is a must-listen.
