My name is Haywood and I suffer from mental illness…I even wrote a book about it called Chasing Pleasure With Pain. I’ll be talking about my experiences, giving advice both to people like me and their loved ones.

In a nutshell, I began suffering from bipolar as a teenager. Instead of medical help, my parents not knowing much about mental illness sent me to a program that traumatized me and worsened my mental health condition. I was finally diagnosed in my thirties so there was plenty of time to hit rock bottom many times before then. Like I said, I’ll be talking about my experiences, interviewing parents of mentally ill children, people who suffer from mental illness, medical professionals and so on.

Follow me on my journey to normalize mental illness. Help me in my cause and subscribe to my new podcast, CHASING AWARENESS.
