What It's Like to Be Diagnosed with Bipolar in Your 50s with Bob Krulish
Diagnosis of mental health may be seemingly ordinary these days, but before 2010, mental illness was a taboo subject that no one dared to talk about. Living undiagnosed and experiencing a different way of processing than those around him, Bob began to seek answers to a lifelong problem that seemed to be damaging his life.
In this episode, we cover what it’s like to be living with undiagnosed mental illness and how it can affect the relationships you keep, the moments you experience, and the person you become.
