About this listen

“I didn’t fully grasp what was happening to me.”

“My intuition was, ‘This is not right.’”

“I’m still here to tell the story.”

After a psychotic episode that resulted in an inpatient hospitalization, Zach was given a diagnosis of bipolar. Today, he adheres to a careful regimen of medications that keep him focused and stable.
