For the last 33 years my life with bipolar disorder has presented its fair share of challenges. Touch wood, I've been episode free for 9 years, and now focus on raising awareness about bipolar and what strategies have helped me survive and thrive.

The way I do this is through my Youtube channel @Thrivingwithbipolar and my book, Befriending Bipolar: a patient's perspective.

I believe that if I can help one person live a better, healthier, happier life alongside bipolar it will ripple out to their friends, families and the world around them.

I love my morning coffee! And I am truly grateful for any coffees you decide to buy me. It makes my life easier and more fun.

All the best on your journey,

Oliver Seligman
