A little more about Greg
I live in Chicago with my beautiful wife, Rachel, and serve as Director of Client Services at Table XI. I enjoy speaking, writing, coding and cooking. I love Jesus, and would like to be more like him.
Greg's Presentation
Developers, Designers, and Depression
I am a developer, and I have Type II BiPolar and ADHD.
It's not something we talk about, but BiPolar, depression, and ADHD runs rampant in the developer community - they tend to correlate with higher intelligence. Many of the symptoms of this conditions make for great developers, but also cause incredible damage. We recently lost one of our co-workers because of untreated mental illness.
I want to share my story - and let people know that it's okay to talk about these things, that it's nothing to be ashamed of, and how to get help, and how to help those around them.
