Gabe Howard: The Mental Health Advocate Who’s Shattering Stigmas and Inspiring Action
When Gabe Howard received his bipolar disorder diagnosis at 26, he felt his life was ending. With no role models for thriving with mental illness, he believed his future was bleak. Yet through tireless efforts, supportive loved ones, treatment, therapy, and self-education, Gabe achieved recovery.
That initial fear of his diagnosis never left him. Instead, it fueled his life’s mission: to be a vocal example of successful living with mental illness. “I wanted to be loud and visible, so the next person diagnosed would think, ‘There’s this guy doing okay – there’s hope for me too,’” Gabe explains.
A Leading Voice in Mental Health
Gabe is now an award-winning podcast host, author, and in-demand speaker. He has captivated audiences at countless events and is a trusted expert in media on mental health, wellness, and the challenges faced by those with mental illness. In 2022, he had the privilege of speaking at Oxford University.
As the only person openly living with bipolar disorder to host a podcast for a major media company, Gabe’s show “Inside Mental Health” reaches listeners on platforms like Spotify, iTunes, Amazon, YouTube, and over 1,800 others. His conversational interviews with celebrities, experts, and thought leaders make psychology and mental health accessible to all.
Gabe is also the author of “Mental Illness is an Asshole and Other Observations”. His work has appeared in outlets like Bipolar Magazine, WebMD, Healthline.com, and the Stanford Online Medical Journal. He has been a guest on popular podcasts and all four major news networks.
