Hello and welcome to the second episode of The Bipolar B!tch! In this episode I discuss my mental health journey ever further. Diving deep into the process of finding a psychologist and a psychiatrist. As well as the debilitating nature of health anxiety especially during Covid, AND how receiving a diagnosis was more confusing than I thought it would be.

TW: Mention of Suicidal ideation, and Covid related anxiety
