NEW YORK, NY - June 11th, 2025 - Author, speaker, and mental health advocate Mabel Pantaleon announces the release of her powerful and poetic memoir, My Diagnosis is My Greatest Gift and My Greatest Teacher: A Personal Guide to Thrive With Bipolar Disorder — a transformative narrative that reimagines bipolar disorder not as a life sentence, but as a spiritual teacher and hidden gift.
Pantaleon’s memoir offers an unfiltered look at what it means to live with bipolar disorder — from the terrifying beauty of manic episodes to the quiet courage it takes to heal. Her story blends lived experience with spiritual insight, providing a beacon of hope for those navigating mental illness, stigma, or personal transformation.
“I didn’t just survive bipolar — I grew because of it,” says Pantaleon. “This diagnosis cracked me open, and in that opening, I discovered truth, purpose, and the strength to rebuild.”
Drawing from metaphysical teachings, psychiatric treatment, and personal growth, the book includes:
-
Vivid depictions of manic and depressive episodes
-
Reflections on spiritual awakening and mystical experiences
-
Guidance for those balancing psychiatric medication with faith or metaphysical beliefs
-
Practical tools and emotional support for those seeking to thrive — not just cope
In tandem with her book, Mabel also founded the nonprofit Echoes of the Divine, a support initiative for individuals on psychiatric medications seeking holistic healing, spiritual community, and self-empowerment.
