Jax Taylor Shares He’s Been Diagnosed With Bipolar Disorder and PTSD Amid Divorce – E! Online

Jax Taylor is updating fans on his health and his life after spending a month in an in-patient facility.

The 45-year-old opened up about a recent diagnosis after checking into the treatment center in late July.

“A little over a month ago, I checked into an intensive inpatient treatment facility scared of the unknown and what I would find out about myself,” the Valley star captioned a Sept. 2 Instagram post. “After many years of knowing something was wrong but not knowing exactly what it was, I recently learned that I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and PTSD.”

As for the reality star’s reaction to the news, he noted, “It’s been a lot to process and an emotional time for me, however I’ve come home to my son with a new found sense of peace. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t scared for the future but my focus is just trying to be a better version of myself than I was yesterday. Mental health is a lifelong battle of not letting it control you but rather you learning to control it.”
