Chris Cole: Reappropriating Bipolar Beyond Pathology




Waking Up Bipolar with Chris Cole | Bipolar disorder, spiritual awakening, and everything in between. show

Summary: In this episode of Waking Up Bipolar, Chris Cole reads from a recent article, "Reappropriating Bipolar Beyond Pathology," published on Mad in America's webzine, madinamerica.com. You can read the article here:  https://www.madinamerica.com/2018/06/reappropriating-bipolar-beyond-pathology/  The primary reason I chose to publish this piece on Mad in America, versus other sites, is that Mad in America has a sharp, critical, and intellectual readership, informed by both science and experience. I am honored and grateful to the mission of Mad in America and their dedication to the goal of “remaking psychiatry.” JOIN THE DISCUSSION at https://www.facebook.com/groups/wakingupbipolar Chris Cole hosts the Waking Up Bipolar podcast, focused on the intersection of bipolar disorder and spiritual awakening.
