    Episode 9: living with a bipolar disorder; an interview with Blair Chadwick

    In episode 9, Tom speaks to one of his closest friends, Blair Chadwick, about living with an underlying bipolar condition and what it's like to experience a psychotic episode, as well as the recovery that follows. It was a tough one to make, but as ever, we thought you should hear it. Huge thanks to Blair for his openness and honesty, and a big shout out to the medical professionals everywhere who are there to help those of us who need a hand from time to time as mental health throws up obstacles. Here at Everyday Problems, we’re not medical professionals but if you feel that you may be some how in danger, we strongly recommend that you speak to someone who is. Rather than put links up to counsellors and therapists in your area, we recommend that you speak directly to your GP, and if you’re in immediate danger then perhaps speak to the Samaritans on 116 123. If you find this podcast helpful and would like to support it, along with other important projects, you can do so for as little as £1.70 per month Every donation makes a huge difference and means we can continue bringing you great content. Just head to patreon.com/tomcorneill for more info. Thank you so much to those already supporting us. Thank you all for listening, we’ll be with you again soon.
