About Bipolar She

I kept my mental illness secret, then one day I pressed record. On Bipolar She we explore questions like: What does a mental health crisis feel like? How do you survive it? What could improve your health? My guests have lived life experience and tell difficult mental health stories in raw detail. What inspired this podcast? I heard an interview on the radio with a comedian who spoke vividly about her bipolar illness and her symptoms. Her symptoms matched up with mine. Everything changed. I was able to open up to my therapist and get better care. So, join me in welcoming storytellers (real people & experts) from various backgrounds to boldly share a part of their lives with the goal of better mental health for all. Please check out BipolarShe.com and let me know if you have a story. The content of this podcast does not include medical or professional advice. Do not disregard or delay seeking medical advice in response to this podcast. We are real people talking mental health. Welcome to Bipolar She.

Can Books Keep Us From Falling Apart? | Juana Libedinsky on "Downhill"

Published 29 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] Oh, much less shame. Totally. Yes, absolutely. It's, In fact, when you're going into any conversation, it's very accepted to just say, and as my shrink says, blah, blah, blah. So it's totally part of daily life. And it's understood that if you're a normally intelligent person, at some point you will have undergone psychoanalysis. And there's like, you know, just... As you're having your morning coffee, you debate if you're Freudian or Lacanian, or if you're going with the Americans that have more of a conductivist approach.
