Maria Figueiredo is a remarkable woman who experienced growing up with a single mother with BiPolar disorder as well as having an autistic brother in New York having immigrated from Puerto Rico at the age of 14.
Maria goes right into detail about her experiences growing with a mentally ill parent and shares numerous stories that we hope can help other people in similar situations.
By sharing her authentic story we hope to encourage people to please share their experiences online in order to create awareness around children growing up with a parent who has a mental illness.
There is a significant lack of online content for young people to learn from those from lived experience, so please reach out.
If you would like to share yours please DM at @authenticconvospodcast
PLEASE SHARE with anyone who you think would benefit from hearing about other peoples experience with this, I am sure there is a lot of people out there who grew up in a similar circumstance with minimal support.
