I have a life that I love today because I picked up the phone and called someone or because I talked to someone, so just know that there are so many people like you with similar stories that you have, that understand what you're going through and that can help.
Katharine Haines' story is one of resilience and transformation. As a student at Quinnipiac University, her path has been anything but smooth. From a young age, Katharine grappled with anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. These struggles led her down a harrowing road of addiction and alcoholism, forcing her to drop out of college the first time around. But this isn't just a tale of hardship; it's one of hope and recovery.
After spending time in rehab and finding effective ways to manage her mental health, Katharine is now thriving. She attends AA meetings, lives in a sober house with other recovering addicts, and has even worked in treatment centers to help others facing similar battles. In this episode of 'Behind the Mind', host Kevin Meiselman sits down with Katharine to discuss her journey in detail.
They talk about the challenges of childhood mental illness, the complexities of a bipolar disorder diagnosis, and the critical link between addiction and mental health. Katharine's candidness offers a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with similar issues. She emphasizes the importance of seeking help and breaking down the stigma surrounding mental illness and addiction. As she puts it, 'you're not alone...there are so many people like you with similar stories that understand what you're going through and can help'.
