Tonight is directly about bipolar disorder, something I haven't done in many episodes.
The reason for this has been shared on my show repeatedly.
But something happened that shifted my opinion about the way I'm handling this topic to a more positive perspective.
I learned the hard way to stop trying to save bipolar afflicted people in any direct fashion.
Back when I used to try, the Universe spanked me hard, hitting my sore bum from multiple angles.
After "failing" to help people beat bipolar in the way that I did, I also came to...2023-07-1723 min

After Bipolar Podcast#12: Whitaker & Mercola: Exercise Better Than MedsRobert Whitaker: Exercise Better Than Meds (2 of 7)
Robert Whitaker makes it very clear in this segment of the interview with Dr. Mercola that exercise has proven to be more effective–and to a greater degree–at fighting depression than anti depressants. I'd like to say, right away, that this pertains only to mild to moderate depression. For severe cases, meds are more than likely going to be critically necessary. At least in the short term. And many of you will need a system like mine, in full, before exercise can have a positive effect on your depression or bipolar. Very...2019-01-1800 minAfter Bipolar Podcast#11: Whitaker & Mercola: Psych Meds Are The ProblemRobert Whitaker: Psych Meds Worsen Mental Illness (1 of 7)
Robert Whitaker came to me by way of Dr. Mercola and his incredibly helpful website. Back in 2006 or so, I had an epiphany. I was laying out all my pills for that moment's dosing session. There were so many pills! The counter was covered with them. That's when it occurred to me that, "If I had some gravy I'd have a full dinner!" That observation was followed by the realization of, "There is no fucking way all these pills somehow equate to good health!" That...2019-01-0600 minAfter Bipolar Podcast#10: PTSD: My Other PlaymatePTSD: My Other Playmate
PTSD. I'd like to say I didn't see that one coming, but that'd be a lie. Similar to bipolar disorder, I think I've had some nugget of this following me since my youth. But the shit I endured during my stay in the Marines helped it come to dark fruition. PTSD can happen to anyone who's survived something they weren't always sure they would Now, I'm not going to dig into a deep look at PTSD. I can't.

I wanted her inner circle opinion on how to make a real world move with the material in my head, beyond what I do on this site. Because the dream build is taking more cash than I have to complete it.

And the reason for why my definition is more appropriate is hidden in a way not easily accepted by, or readily visible to most. But before we even dive down these various rabbit holes, let's get one major point clear: It's not MY bipolar If you take ownership of the illness by thinking of it in terms of being "mine", it will continue to hold power...2018-04-0200 minAfter Bipolar Podcast#6: Seven21 Media Center Interview w/ Jeremy EllenbogenSeven21 Media Center InterviewSeven21 Media Center in Kingston, NY.

I thought I'd left behind the idea of actively sharing anything about my bipolar past. I have always wanted my material to be available to those who need it most. But my first run at doing so turned into a bitterly stressful dead end. In response, I began Outsiders Journey. I wanted to branch out into new areas, while still giving out all I'd learned to beat bipolar. So I designed parts of the site to passively share that info without embroiling myself in the same shit I'd encountered in the past. There...2018-01-2500 min
