Description:

The playa can wreak havoc on a "normally" wired brain, but when the sensory overload of Burning Man is combined with Bipolar it can be especially daunting to cope with. We're here to support you. We also want to offer a place for people to talk about their coping strategies and serve as a resource to those in need. Discuss how to avoid or at least mitigate triggers. Offer stories of what has been successful and what hasn't worked as well for you. Or just come to listen and know you are not alone.

For those in need of more acute counseling and treatment, we encourage you to seek out the mental health services offered on the playa, and assist you to take advantage of them if needed.
