‘What Is Eating My Mind’, a documentary for BBC Africa Eye, is an insightful and deeply personal story of living with bipolar disorder in Kenya, where the issue of mental health is often taboo.

For years, she has kept a record of her battle with bipolar disorder and her search for answers to one burning question: ‘What Is Eating My Mind?’ While filming, she faces her biggest challenge yet, but her story is one of hope.
