Passion Struck with John R. Miles · The Truth About Success (And Why It Still Doesn't Feel Like Enough) | Blake Mycoskie - EP 770 · 21 May 2026 podcast

And that was also, I will say for anyone, this is important.

I was misdiagnosed as bipolar.

And during this whole five year journey, and I got put on four different pharmaceuticals that I think really led to the suicidal ideation.

Not only did it numb me, because in bipolar, they're trying to mitigate any highs or lows.

And so it just flattened me.

But then it also just made me not want to be alive and not think that I should be alive.

And so

I was weaning off the meds under the care of an incredible psychiatrist, but still weaning off four different psychiatric meds that you should never have been put on in the first place is really hard on your brain chemistry.

And so I feel like during that time, I was not even in control of my thoughts.

It was like a demon had taken over

my brain and it was just wrecking havoc on me and telling me the worst things about myself and about life and about potential for any joy in the future and i think when someone takes their life it's because they just wanted to stop they just can't handle that inner monologue anymore and i was there i was there like i said for three months i made a plan to do it on my sailboat that i lived on for six years when i started toms and

Cause I just didn't want my family to be the ones who found me.

That's the way I was thinking back then.

And yeah, but hitting that rock bottom is what really forced me to take my healing or my mental health much more seriously.

Cause I did feel like I was losing control.

And then that's when I reached out to friends and family and started getting really good help.

And so, yeah, it was, I think accumulation of a lot of pain and suffering for years and just that.

And then also these meds that really got me to the place where I just couldn't handle it anymore.

Everything changes.

Literally, when I had the realization that was really at the core underneath all of it and that I had been there for a very long time.
