Discover the transformative journey of Dave Mowry, who has lived with bipolar disorder and severe anxiety throughout his adult life.

Once a successful businessman, Dave’s world unraveled due to his mental illness, leading to 14 years of profound struggle. Everything changed when he took a stand-up comedy class specifically for individuals with mental health challenges.

This experience shifted his perspective, allowing him to reclaim control over his life by finding humor in his pain.

Now, Dave teaches stand-up comedy to others grappling with mental illness, helping them uncover humor in their own experiences and transform their sadness into light and hope.

His personal story of recovery is detailed in his book, "OMG That's Me! 3," which captures his journey from despair to empowerment.

Dave’s comedy is known for being smart, inspirational, and laugh-out-loud funny.

He shares his raw experiences of mental illness, homelessness, and loss on his blog for bphope.com, where his posts have resonated with over a million readers, often evoking the reaction, "OMG That's Me! You're telling my story, I don't feel so alone now."

His best-selling book, "OMG That's Me! Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, Panic Attacks, and More...," has sold over 20,000 copies and offers a candid look at his journey through profound depression, panic attacks, and eventual recovery.

Tune in now to hear Dave’s powerful story of overcoming challenges and how his openness, honesty, and humor can inspire others on their path to recovery.
