Luis is considered someone with bipolar condition that is very high functioning. In essence, he is considered able to lead a full life. He initially struggled to find the right mix of medicine and therapy to treat his condition. He has not had an episode since 2013. Through trial and error and determination, he found a great system, composed of medicine and therapy, that works for him and allows him to thrive personally and professionally.
