What does it mean to be “Next To Normal?”

The Pulitzer-prize winning musical of the same name centers on a family affected by bipolar disorder – and serves as a starting point for hosts Elliot Joseph and Rebecca Stewart to talk about mental health, discrimination and stigma, addiction and recovery.

Guest Kathleen Flaherty is an attorney and mental health advocate who talks intimately about her first-hand experience as a person in recovery from bipolar disorder, and Patricia Rehmer of the Hartford HealthCare Behavioral Health Network shares her wealth of experience regarding the resources available and needed to help clients, families and communities stay on track with their own mental health.
