Friends, fam, colleagues past and present, riders, I'm wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas π₯³
No Uber Stories this week, but I recently shared an update via social media that I wanted to take some time expanding upon and opening up about. I recently began taking a new medication to help me better manage my symptoms and struggles with Bipolar Disorder and I can't say thank you enough to those who reached out because the response was overwhelming positive.
I discuss in-depth the journey of how I got to this point, when and what led me to want to get tested and eventually diagnosed, what my manic and depressive episodes look like, the medication I'll be taking, and the goals I hope this will help me accomplish.
If you or anyone you know suffers from Bipolar Disorder, or any mental health issue, feel free to reach out to me and I'd be happy to talk with them. You could also send them this episode and I bet hearing someone else speak openly and honestly about the ups and downs and struggles with mental illness will be refreshing.
I promise to always give you me, the real me, because after all... HOW AM I KEEPING IT REAL BY KEEPING THIS SHIT TO MYSELF???
