For 39 years, Sonja lived without understanding why her life felt so fragmented, why she struggled with relationships, and why her moods swung from euphoric highs to crushing lows. The revelation that she has been living with undiagnosed bipolar disorder type 2 changes everything. This discovery sheds light on her difficulties with maintaining employment and facing relentless criticism for not fitting into societal norms.
Sonja's journey highlights the societal struggle to accommodate those who don't fit the expected mold. Despite years of academic success and PhD studies, Sonja is rejected as a colleague and person due to her inconsistency and severe mood swings. The system pushes her into the workforce without the desperately needed safety net, leaving her to navigate this harsh reality alone.
