On Having a Mother with Bi-Polar Disorder with Valerie Gamache

Safe Space Radio interviews family educator Valerie Gamache about her relationship with her mother who had bi-polar disorder.  Valerie describes the ways her family tried to keep the “Big Secret,” to the point that a friend thought her mother had actually died since Valerie spoke so little about her. She also talks about her encounters with discrimination and prejudice that fuel this kind of silence.
