Bi-Polar Girl Beyond – Details, episodes & analysis

Jeff Brown was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in college at 21. The diagnosis made so much sense that he chose to live “out” as bipolar. Jeff had the full range of madness and brilliance and he has seen life at the peaks and depths of this condition. He also graduated college, have had a successful career in tech and became a patented inventor. Now Jeff is building this advocacy to help people who haven’t made it.

Rebecca, Aimee, and Stephen interview New England's Rachel Kaplan, author and advocate. From Rachel's bio: After spending years dealing with depression and mania caused my bipolar disorder I finally got on the right treatment plan and for the first time in my adult life had the chance to become happy. Over the course of just 3 years I have retrained my brain to go from being depressed to being extremely happy. Becoming happier has also contributed to me living a nearly perfect life with great family, friends, and my dream job defining it. Nothing in this book is just generic advice. It is all based on real steps that I took and are continuing to take in order to live my dream life.  Connect with Rachel Twitter: https://twitter.com/RachelKaplan4 Connect with Bi-Polar Girl Website: https://bipolargirlpodcast.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bipolargirlpodcast/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/bipolargirlpod   Co-Staring  Rebecca J.
