Bipolar Almost Broke Me | Chris Fraser
Manage episode 463840090 series 2950640
The suicide rate for people living with bipolar is between 10 and 30 times higher than the general population, accounting for up to a quarter of all suicides in Australia.
Research shows up to 60% of those with the condition will make at least one attempt on their life. Father of three, Chris Fraser is one of them.
He experienced multiple extended bi-polar episodes in his early and mid-thirties, when months of mania were followed by even longer periods of severe depression – throwing his life into chaos.
With therapy, the right mix of medication and the support of his family, Chris has clawed his way out of a seemingly bottomless abyss; emerging with his own blueprint of how to manage bi-polar and make life worth living.
This is Chris Fraser…
