Unraveling to Understanding: My Bipolar Journey Begins

Welcome to the first episode of My Mental My Health.

I’m your host, Sade Sellers—and this is the story I’ve never told until now.

In this deeply personal and unfiltered episode, I open up about the moment everything unraveled—my descent into psychosis, being institutionalized, and ultimately being diagnosed with Bipolar I Disorder.

💬 Why I’m Sharing This:

When I was diagnosed, I didn’t know anyone else going through it. I searched the internet for answers and stories that felt like mine. Now that I’ve found some healing, I’m paying it forward.
