In this deeply personal episode, I'm diving into my first manic episode - a life-changing journey that unfolded while running a taco shop with my cousin in 2023. Before being diagnosed with bipolar 1 in 2024, I experienced a surreal period of intense delusion and heightened energy. I'll share how I transformed from a landscape business owner to a food truck entrepreneur, and then spiraled into a manic state where I believed I was a Native American warrior on a spiritual mission.
I'll take you through my bizarre experiences: running miles in a Spider-Man hoodie, believing I was fighting demons, placing my landscaping equipment strategically around our Route 66 property, and experiencing an encounter with local law enforcement that felt like a cosmic test. From hallucinating about preventing a school tragedy to feeling connected to the universe, I'll reveal the raw, unfiltered details of how mania reshaped my perception of reality.
This episode explores how mental health can fundamentally alter one's understanding of self, relationships, and purpose. It's a vulnerable look into the disorienting world of bipolar disorder and my unexpected path to diagnosis and understanding.
