FROM THIS SHOW...

 

The longer a bipolar disorder has to play havoc in your life, the more you retreat into self-centered thinking and activities. And getting sucked into this is no way to stay productive and healthy!

How can we keep our anxious hurts and frustrations and disappointments from taking over the conversation?

Is there anything that can break the spell of self-defeat and restore us to a radiant place in our families and community?

Don't miss today's show, as Mike shares with Daniel how their unexpected and service-based working relationship turned out to be the rocket fuel for a recovery from a 2-year-plus depression.
