Very helpful! Baby #2 has exacerbated the feeling of trying to remember a word that’s just out of reach that’s probably due to the bipolar, the treatment for the bipolar and/or the massive concussion from a car accident 10 years ago
Bipolar comes in many shades and it can be difficult to get a diagnosis. It took me about 3 years to get a diagnosis and the correct combo of meds. 15 years and 2 kids later, I’m grateful to 20 year old me for not giving up.
I'm CA's Acting Surgeon General. Today, I'd like to publicly share my journey with bipolar disorder.
Stigma festers in the dark and scatters in the light.
By speaking out, I hope to help dispel stigma. To help anyone struggling know they’re not alone — and to have hope. 1/
It’s 2022.
We don’t have to hide in the shadows anymore.
Let’s shine a light on our stories — of illness AND wellness — and embrace our full, authentic selves. 9/

@AstroKatie I, for one, am extremely happy to be considered a pregnant person. It costs me nothing - well the person part. The pregnancy is costing some amount of money.
I've been asking my male friends to do something - *watch if the first response to everything a woman tells you is to refute, say no or something negative*
One texted me later: Holy f*ck
The problem is, constantly putting up with unwarranted resistance is bad for mental health.
