TWE 109: Melody Moezzi, Author of "Haldol and Hyacinths--A Bipolar Life"

Melody Moezzi has battled mental illness for over 20 years. She shares her journey as an Iranian-American-Muslim activist coping with her bipolar disorder with host Stacey Gualandi, and says she's been able to help a lot of people see that they are not alone with mental illness. Because she feels she was misdiagnosed for years, she says it's important for the medical community to be more proactive. Melody discusses her manic episodes, the undying support she got from her husband, and the importance of treating it early. She believes that people stay sick because they stay silent.
