5. Fatal Fixation (Mental Health in Movies pt. 1)

Are you a bunny boiler or quiet doe eyed school girl? Or a little of both?  In this episode we discuss the movies Girl Interrupted and Fatal Attraction. Are they accurate portrayals of Borderline Personality? Shelby talks about early days living with BP, Fayelyn expresses frustrations with disbelief and Karrey adds a glimpse in the dangerous extremes some can go to.  What is fake, what is fiction, and what is downright frightening.

You might have seen Shelby Tweten on AMERICAN IDOL but since then, she has traveled the country to become an international advocate for Mental Health Awareness. She was on the cover of Bipolar Hope Magazine, received the Didi Hirsch Erasing the Stigma Award as well as the Bipolar Association’s Inspire Award. But what does it all really mean if she's forced to water down her story to please the people afraid of the truth of mental illness? This PODCAST will take you through Shelby and her Guests' real struggles, to the deepest of their darkness, the twisted & paralyzing effects on relationships as well as the feelings of being extremely misunderstood.
