Within her recovery journey after being correctly diagnosed with bipolar 1 disorder and PTSD, Brit worried about what her life would look like after being diagnosed. She questioned how she would tell her friends if she would ever get a boyfriend and felt incredibly uncertain about the future.
How accepting her own diagnosis was her most freeing and empowering moment to date.
How we can all choose our words carefully to impact communities more positively.
Brit explains that bipolar 1 disorder is a chemical imbalance in the brain and together, we discuss what this means for her everyday life.
Brit’s appreciation for life and passion for helping others and how this helps her to suppress intrusive thoughts.
