Ep. 5 - IV Presents Sarah Jickling - The Disorder

Interesting Vancouver Portraits

The first time a doctor told Sarah Jickling she had bipolar disorder, she didn’t believe her. In Sarah's mind, bipolar was a scary word reserved only for crazy people. It wasn’t Sarah. She was a musician who played glockenspiel and sang about boys and had just done a photo shoot lying in a field of 300 homemade cupcakes. The third time a doctor told her she had bipolar disorder, along with a string of other mental illnesses, she was in the emergency room at Saint Paul’s hospital on Boxing Day. In this episode, Sarah discusses her struggle with mental illness, how it effected her friendship with her best friend Molly and their former band The Oh Wells. www.sarahsgoodbadluck.com www.interestingvancouver.com www.davidswansonmedia.com
