Show Notes

Today’s guest went 52 years before he got a diagnosis for Bipolar. He says he’d always known he was a bit different, but it wasn’t until the death of his Dad, when his life imploded, that he finally found the help and the diagnosis he’d always needed.

But for Nigel Edginton-Amor, or Sky Creative Agency his illness isn’t all bad. Although he suffers extreme highs and severe lows, his condition also aids his creativity. 

He first spoke out about being bipolar at work, when Sky began training Mental Health First Aider's, and now he wants to help others better understand what it’s like to live with the disorder.
