A mental health advocate, YouTuber and small business owner. I share my stories through struggle to stability on my YouTube channel and podcast, Play it by Ear.
In 2019, I experienced psychosis, a turning point that forever changed my perspective on life and mental health. Those early days were intense—a whirlwind of confusion, disconnection, and the daunting task of trying to make sense of my mind. Living with bipolar disorder has been a journey of discovery, revealing both the challenges and the strengths within me.
At first, it was a battle to find balance, marked by late nights of introspection and a relentless search for stability. Conversations with specialists, building routines, and forming a solid support system were crucial steps in my journey toward a life that honours my mental health.
Through this, I’ve realised that sharing my story is a way to connect, inspire, and shed light on the experiences many face but few talk about. Each step—from seeking help to understanding bipolar and psychosis—has shaped who I am today and strengthened my commitment to mental health awareness.
My vision is to create a free worldwide supportive community to help people going through psychosis and those who care for them.
My mission is to improve awareness and access to compassionate care for conditions like psychosis, mania, and bipolar disorder, fostering understanding and hope for those affected.
I sometimes take some time out in a café and write a blog article. Here are my most recent posts if you’d like to have a read:
