There’s a certain kind of pain that comes with being misunderstood — the kind that runs deeper than words, deeper than logic. In this episode, Jamie opens up about a recent manic episode and the raw reality of what it feels like to lose control of yourself while the world around you struggles to understand.

She shares the truth behind mania — the chaos, the helplessness, and the heartbreak of watching those you love not know how to help. Through her story, Jamie explores the emotional cost of being misunderstood and how empathy, presence, and advocacy can change everything.

This isn’t just about bipolar disorder — it’s about every person who’s ever felt unseen, unheard, or misjudged in their struggle. Because being understood, even by one person, can make all the difference.

💙 You’re not alone in this chaos. There is hope — and it starts with being seen.
