Thanks to Gabe, I am starting a series called "How I Improved My Mental Health". This series relies on people coming forward and contacting me about their journeys and wanting to share them. So, if you are someone who has a mental health journey that has improved, please contact me!
Gabe works as a global marketing manager for a big life sciences corporation and recently completed his MBA.
In this interview, he talks about dealing with a learning disability (ADHD), going to therapy for the first time at 32, and how that has helped his life.
