Customer Reviews
Thank you
I’m Black with bipolar. I frequently think about dying. I look forward to it. Ppl always have a plan for living but I tend to plan for dying. Anyway I feel seen in some ways. I feel lonely and misunderstood most of the time. Thanks
Thank you 💜💜💜
I appreciate you for being vulnerable and sharing your experiences. Your podcast has helped me feel less alone as a BW who has been recently diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Love and light.
