Welcome!
Welcome to my blog! I am Subrina Singh, a proud South Asian American, living with bipolar disorder. I want to start by saying how grateful I am to start this journey and share bits of my life with a severe mental illness. At 16, when I was diagnosed my number was priority was to hide - to hide my illness more specifically. I was so dedicated to creating a facade as a way to mask my illness from the world. Like most people, I feared judgement. And like many South Asians, I held onto the shame my illness caused.
A decade ago, I shared my story for the first time. And, OMG - it was so incredibly freeing! For the first time in my life, I began to live my truth. That is when, my healing truly began. It was then, I added “start blog,” on my goal list. And there it remained, until today.
So, here I am, finally checking this task off my list. My heart is so full to begin this new journey with all of you. What I once hid, I now own with pride! It brings me great joy, to welcome you to my bipolar journey.
