What does it feel like to move through the world in pursuit of happiness while carrying the depths of trauma? What is it like to deal with the daily battle of multiple mental illnesses?
In my conversation with Lindsay Coryne, she courageously tackles the stigma and challenges of living with Bipolar II, PTSD, and ADHD; and shares her very personal journey; one that has a familial connection to trauma and mental illness. Her deep capacity for empathy and compassion in this area is such an inspiration and reminds us, especially in this Covid-19 era, of why empathy, human connection and support is so incredibly important.
ABOUT LINDSAY:
Lindsay Coryne is an accomplished actor, appearing most recently on the last season of the Netflix series, 'Orange Is The New Black', as well as FX shows 'Better Things' and 'You're The Worst'. Due to her family history and her own diagnosis of Bipolar II, PTSD, and ADHD, she has recently become an outspoken advocate for mental health education and trauma support.
