Join Crystal & Heather as they interview writer/blogger June Converse, as we discuss living with bi-polar.
We pulled this bio from June's site:
"Who I am
In April 2012 I had a mental breakdown. The real thing. I have about 36 hours that I don’t remember. Then I have 4 weeks of almost catatonic sitting and contemplating, well, contemplating nothing! Next came 9 weeks of inpatient rehab 600 miles from my family. At the end of that I had:
No career
No faith that I could trust
My family (they were so very supportive)
Few remaining friends
Poor physical health (fat, high blood pressure, pre-diabetic, etc. etc.)
Medical bills
Fears – so many fears
Anger – such anger!
I returned from rehab able to function in a limited capacity but at least I was past catatonic and had some clear (very clear) issues that needed resolution. Who knew that four years later, I’d still be in the resolution process?
Today, I have no career, a mushy faith, my awesome family, the same few friends, better health, fewer fears, less anger. Some days I’m cool with that and other days I’m devastated."
