Episode: Unconventional Intervention, with Peter Aitchison
Description: Disclaimer: This episode is for entertainment purposes only and should not be considered as advice. This is a platform provided for people to share their stories, and this is Peter's story. When Peter was 27 he was diagnosed with type 2 bi-polar disorder, and a lot of his past behaviours started to add up. He took his doctors advice and began traditional treatment methods. For a time they provided a new perspective which was helpful. Almost a decade later, the treatment was not serving him. He was depressed, an alcoholic and felt hopelessly a victim to his diagnosis.
