2X more likely to suffer from depression

2X more likely to have suicidal thoughts

3X more likely to suffer from substance abuse

6X more likely to have ADHD

10X more likely to suffer from bi-polar disorder

In this episode, successful founder and angel investor Andy Dunn talks about living with Bipolar I disorder.

Andy Dunn is an entrepreneur, author, investor, and father. Andy co-founded the menswear brand Bonobos, which sold for $310 million. Last year, he published a memoir called Burn Rate: Launching a Startup and Losing My Mind, which detailed his up-until-then private journey with bipolar disorder.
