This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
It's funny about the other post, cause 10 minutes ago I was walking to my office thinking about posting this. I am SO grateful for my medication. I just put together a 10-15 minute kind of stand-up comedy routine on one of the guys at work (it's kind of a tradition we have). Just a few months ago, I could not remember stuff, think of stuff, put together stuff, nor would I be able to deliver the routine. In my case, the meds gave me back my creativity.
how insulting.
i guess i could take the high road and tell you with time and patience i hope you find the right cocktail that leaves your higher creativity intact and blah blah blah...
but i think i'd rather leave it at...
how insulting.
When I first started Seroquel however, my creativity went to the wayside. Before my systems got used to the new med, I felt like there was a wet blanket over my heart and soul and anything creative was dampened. Fortunately, when my system to used to the med, everything came back to as it should be.
Insulting and pretentious dreadfully, horribly, ridiculously pretentious.
Eff, you are very young and quite arrogant, and I do hope that while you are composing symphonies of such sublime beauty they change the musical aesthetic for people worldwide, you will look down on us mere mortals who are crudely drawing and painting trains and pity us.
The Zombified effect (with added drool, if unfortunate) is hardly a time for whipsmart repartee etc ;)
Then I could work through the night and believed my images were genius when on a high, but in the cold light of day meds did change something for the worse when it came to my creativity.
If I had the choice between the suicidal depressions meds free or depakote I'll take the meds and stability every time and kiss the quality I had in my pics goodbye.
