What this episode covers

As an energetic normal boy of nine, Steven W. Wilson would not have guessed that the most horrifying day of his life was lurking just months ahead.From that terrifying day when he was at the theater, to his suicidal ideations, his attempt to kill his father and his subsequent hospitalization, Teetering on a Tightrope sweeps the reader headlong into the abyss of bipolar disorder. Wilson propels the reader into his sometimes out-of-control mind, inability to perform sexually and overwhelming anger. Despite all that, Wilson gushes about the monumental times when he was in a state of normalcy and could enjoy life's golden moments, all centered around his family and friends. Teetering on a Tightrope shows that those who suffer from bipolar disorder can experience a full and productive life.Get the book Teetering on a Tightrope: My Bipolar Journey:https://www.amazon.com/Teetering-Tightrope-My-Bipolar-Journey/dp/B0BSRJPNYTBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time.
