I live and have lived a life of privilege. I was raised in a stable nuclear family by loving and supportive parents in a White suburban neighbourhood. I went to good schools and was able to focus on my studies without having to care for a younger sibling or aging relative. I have always known where my next meal was coming from and had a roof over my head and shoes on my feet. I enjoy considerable privilege, and this has enabled me to pursue every possible avenue for treatment of my #bipolardisorder, from run of the mill medications to experimental brain surgery and now #ketamine therapy.
