In XYBM 156, we sit down with Rwenshaun Miller, a therapist who has lived on both sides of the therapy couch. He breaks down the real face of bipolar disorder — far beyond the mood-swing myths — through the lens of his own diagnosis at 19, three su-c-de attempts spanning seven years, and a battle with alcohol that nearly cost him everything, all while graduating from UNC on an academic scholarship and walking onto a Division I football and track team. This is a must-watch for anyone who has ever looked “high-functioning” on the outside while quietly struggling on the inside. For the athletes, the overachievers, the men battling in silence, and the people trying to support someone they love through mental health challenges… this conversation is going to hit different.
