Nationwide, almost one in five people are living with a mental health condition. Our guest on this episode, activist and author Sarah Fay, is one of those who’ve been diagnosed with a mental illness.

In fact, Sarah Fay has been diagnosed—or rather, misdiagnosed—with six mental illnesses over the last 30 years. She writes about her experience and raises important mental health questions for all of us in the new book, "Pathological: The True Story of Six Misdiagnoses".
