This is a mother that everyone needs open to face the problem, identifying it and finding a solution.

We are a young couple...six months on KZread and this will be our next video...mental health. Keep doing this Caroline 👏👏👏

Kuki and Mama Kuki, you're doing amazing sweetie ♥

My goodness!!!Am in awe and continue to be informed.Love this series👏👏👏Can't wait for the men to come on.

This is great Caroline! This gives a platform for people to understand what mental illness is and makes people aware of the reality of how it affects all of us.

Like always, very informative. Good job Caroline Mutoko. Imagine God will bless you ooh.

Caroline, these conversations are great ... Thank you

Amazing conversation. Beautiful mother and daughter. Thanks Caroline for starting this conversation. I wish some TV station could air these videos. Could help many people who face mental health problems.

Great Conversation ...informative as always Caroline keep at it...

God bless you caroline.. this will help very many kenyans, parents, siblings, children..

Hey Caroline,good discussion,watching you from Canada

Amazing amazing stuff keep up the good work hun mwa

Caroline...be blessed.I am learning alot.

Beautiful ladies. Bipolar is hell.

They are like two sisters not mum&daughter.. Thanks iv learnt a lot..

Wooow!another great aspect to this conversation mental health and genetics ...one more reason to have this conversations on mental health because it runs down the families..some like schizophrenia might skip a generation and reappear in the next one...which means eventually it's gonna show up so we have to know how to deal with it when it comes.its time special schools that address these needs even in children are set up or personnel trained with this information to be inculcated into the schools...amazing conversations!!

Healthy living helps a lot. Exercise, eat well, sleep, dance, pray etc

Njeri Chege And medication most importantly!

Amazing

Very informative. My child is struggling with it but refuses medication

This is good to inform the public who label any behaviour they dont understand to be Bi-Polar. If you have an eccentric or extroverted or strong willed child you label it Bi-Polar. If you dont get someone,they're Bipolar. Everyone has different personalities and the less socially acceptable ones should not be labelled as a mental illness

😱😨😨That absolutely explains my whole life ..i shock pple how i can sleep 36hrs ,i almost did 48hrs a while back no jokes n that burning out all energy then u are left at zero.I just introvert and am back at 100 again after a week or so ...am checking all boxes its not even funny😭😷this is crazy

Kendi Johns have you seen anyone like a specialist??

And the challenge is we cannot talk about these things on public for fear of stigmatisation. I recently confided in a colleague and the trolling I am getting Oh my God! Has really damaged me more. We prefer suffering in silence.

Anyone with Bi-Polar needs mood stabilizers, yes drugs are harmful but they are sometimes a life saver.

Trying living with someone with *UNDIAGNOSED BIPOLAR* and you HAVE NO CLUE! It’s a horrible illness *WORSE* than a physical illness.

I think my brother is going through something... We were supposed to graduate together last yr but he didn't and it created a lot of trouble and he went deep into something I can't explain... It hurts alot coz I don't know where to start with him we used to be close but a drift started from no where. I know him so well I know something is not right

I know these two wonderful people. Wairimu, like most bipolar people I know, has above average intelligence.

Thanks Wamuyu!

This is very insightful and the guests (Wairumi & Kuki )are very eloquent I must say,I am struggling with the explanation especially the feeling you get wehen youre feeling low,how is it different from probably somebody who did construction work for 13hrs and only got like 4-5 hrs of sleep?how is it different from a lazy morning?what is that distinction ? This might come across insensitive to others and i apologize but its my opinion,for someone like me and probably others out there i wonder if our parent/gurdians would see this as a disease try staying in bed ati you cant get up,sijui you dont have enough energy 😂😂😂,viboko zenye utakula hapo !!! Utapona and your mitochondria will quickly generate some energy infact the thought of it will not a llow you to wait 😂🤣 (some of this illnesses know where they can be hosted)im just saying 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️.Caroline put word out to find a guest that has experience with depression and is on this other side i mean struggling just want to learn if the experience is any different. Otherwise Wairimu and Kuki thank you for sharing this private details of your life with us.

Hard conversations but essential

Mania is really like personality on steroids. I normally feel like my thoughts are so many like they are hitting each other in my head like brownian motion lol. I can't sleep. Physically I shake a lot. I can't sit still. If you were to talk to me, you would me shocked. Too many words, too many opinions. Grandiose feelings, feeling like you can do anything. Can't focus or concentrate, can't think straight. Keep this up for a week, then you must crush. And the depressive state begins.

I should share my story :-(

Been following up the discussions on depression...its really good and enlightening....however am concerned ...a Have not seen men in the interviews

I think it's harder for men to openly talk about mental health issues due to society's perceptions.

Stella Osano I agree.

Funny.. When I was watching this the first time I didn't know that I was bipolar 2...sudden mood swings and weird things going on. It's still a struggle especially the "dark days".. But it's a working process

I was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder after my life spiralled out of control. Basically meaning I have schizophrenia and bipolar mood disorder.

Please let me digress :mum and daughter are too beautiful .That shade of dark is so juicy juicy.Wish them well in their journey.

Could this be caused by a body imbalance?
