Bio
I am a joyful newlywed living blissfully in Western Colorado, mother of one daughter, have lived with bipolar disorder II for 31 years. I manage my diagnosis through balanced holistic self-care, and am also in long-term recovery from drug and alcohol abuse. I attend 12-step meetings, work with a sponsor, and do lots of reading. I also recently completed most of the Intentional Peer Support curriculum until our instructor was unable to continue due to medical concerns. I volunteer with the National Alliance on Mental Illness and a local group called the Postvention Alliance. Soon I will complete QPR Training, as well as ASSIST and Mental Health First Aid. I am passionate about helping and supporting those. in need and would very much love the opportunity to contribute as a listener.
