Thermochromia Cricket

- Education
Thermochromia is a podcast about, first and foremost, my relationship with mental illness. I was diagnosed late in life with bipolar disorder, and even later than that with ADHD, generalized anxiety, and depression. My religious upbringing kept these diagnoses from happening until I was an adult, and I want to explore what that means in a podcast setting where I bring on guests to talk about their experiences with mental illness, religion, authoritarianism, and what that means now.
