This World Bipolar Day, we’re proud to work with People First Media to share our experiences with bipolar disorder. Join 8 of our team members as they share about their own inspiring experiences with bipolar disorder, mental health stigma, the power of stories, and what drives our work in mental health.

…finding support from people with similar experiences is the best thing for somebody newly diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
