Happy Halloween! I wanted to tell everyone that I am well! Details in this episode. Madame Bipolar Psychosis no more. We have left Mavericks, and we are on the pink sands of Harbour Island. This episode consists of a responsible podcaster updating listeners who include colleagues, friends, friends of friends, relatives, inter-webs, et al. 

This is dumb. I’ll admit that. That’s fair. Haha

My favorite thus far? Trigger warning: adult humor (mostly censored out by innocent moi) Lauran Childs is a Tarot Reader extraordinaire, and a fantastic fun guest full of stories. You won't hear some. Sorry.  We read cards. There is a breakthrough: Tarot therapy working its magic live as it was happening.

I think this is a lot better with the Billie Holiday song at the end on Spotify

Yero “Crescendo” Lopez is a Miami street musician who performs very close to home…so close that I recognized him after being admitted to the psych ward!

Hi guys. I'm manic depressive. I was institutionalized recently, and I discovered a podcast that helped me. It was funny and incredibly honest. I contacted the podcast host. I am going to be a guest on her podcast called Manic State of Mind this week! I got really psyched about that, so I decided to start my own.  I want you to know that it gets better. It really will. I can't promise you that, bu...
