Ep. 5 - Good Kid Gone Bad
Listen now
Description
This Prison Letter is from a young inmate who started out as a typical kid from the suburbs, but took a wrong turn and couldn’t get back. Join Dr. Mark Goulston as he explores how good kids can go bad, including social pressures, drugs, and hidden family issues.  Dr. Mark takes note of the clues that might have saved this inmate from prison, if only someone had noticed the path of breadcrumbs leading the way, and wonders if undiagnosed bipolar disorder is more common than we realize - and possibly the cause of many criminal behaviors.
