Tim McCarthy | We Share Mental Health Struggles, Bipolar, Anxiety, Depression and Medication Talk - a podcast by KDD Media Company

Why did I want to talk with McCarthy on Knockin' Doorz Down? Tim McCarthy the host of 20TIMunutes is someone you would meet, and see as a guy who is happy, and funny and would do anything to make you laugh. Even if it was self-deprecating. Tim and I have a discussion about our mental health struggles, including anxiety, depression, and his bipolar issues and how confronts it. We also openly discuss the medications that we've used to combat our mental health struggles. 

 Deep down Tim has fought an internal battle that he didn’t figure out until it was almost too late. Tim finally learned something was off mentally&wanted the pain to go away, forever. On May 5th, 2019, Tim attempted to take his own life, but fortunately enough, he did not succeed in his plan. After that, he knew it was time to get professional help. After a long battle going through doctors, multiple therapists,&dealing with the mental healthcare system, Tim finally got some answers. Tim was officially diagnosed with general anxiety, ADHD, and Bipolar II / Manic Depression. Feeling ashamed at first, and with the help of friends&family, Tim came to terms with his disorder. Since then he wanted to help as many people as he could that also suffered alone with mental health issues. Hence the creation of 20TIMinutes, a podcast that focuses on mental health through the help of humor, insight&personal stories

Now facing his challenges head-on and an advocate to openly discuss issues of mental health Tim has become an inspiration to others. This is Tim McCarthy in his own words on Knockin' Doors Down.For 51FIFTY use the discount code KDD20 for 20% off! https://51fiftyltm.com/
