Meloney, hailing from the vibrant Caribbean, is not just a dedicated mom but also an eloquent writer. She's the voice and vision behind 'Dopamine on the Rocks,' a blog that delves deep into the intricacies of mental health, aiming to shed light and dispel myths.
Her personal journey took a significant turn when, after welcoming her third child, she was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder. Rather than letting this define her, Meloney used it as a catalyst for change. She recognized a prevalent hesitation in the Caribbean community to discuss mental health, often overshadowed by societal misconceptions. Determined to shift this narrative, Meloney's blog serves as a platform for open dialogue, blending earnest discussions with a hint of humor.
Through 'Dopamine on the Rocks,' Meloney invites readers to embark on a collective journey, emphasizing the power of shared stories and mutual support in navigating life's challenges.
