In honor of World Bipolar Day, I present a sample stream of consciousness based on my experiences living with this disorder.

I don’t think of myself as fat. Not inside, anyway.

More and more programs are offering services to help companies support and retain women during their maternity transition.

You do not have to hate your body — but you don’t have to love it either. While I'm happy with my fat body, I miss being thin.

I'll never forget the day I discovered the name for my mental illness.

“I don’t even know what to say, Joni. Your baby isn’t alive.”
