Bipolar Disorder Support Group
Bipolar disorder is not just a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders marked by periods of abnormally high energy and euphoria, often accompanied by bouts of clinical depression. This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
I pasted this positive insight in another post... but by golly I didn't give it the right title!!
On my ride home tonight, I thought about my self wil being like lead... soft and malleable, not much to look at, not much face value, and a seriously heavy weight to bear.
So keeping the above in mind, I did what any good bipolar would do, I looked up what lead is used for....and was suprised
Lead is used as a coloring element in ceramic glazes, notably in the colors red and yellow.
Lead is used to form glazing bars for stained glass or other multi-lit windows. This practice has become less common, not for danger but for stylistic reasons.
Lead is the traditional base metal of organ pipes, mixed with varying amounts of tin to control the tone of the pipe.
Lead is frequently used in scuba diving weight belts to counteract the diver's natural buoyancy and that of his equipment.
Lead is still widely used today in statues and sculptures.
Interesting... So my self will, I considered to be toxic and a dead weight, might be used for art, music, a counter"weight" to my bipolar, and to add style and flair. Not bad for a bipolar thought process

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??
You mean there was nothing raunchy about it? I feel betrayed. I'm reporting you and Tim for misleading posts! ::giggle::
About the lead thing (yawn...sorry)...although I am in to art, I mostly use lead to write with or to play Sudoku. Not2Sure, I would love to see some of stained glass artwork. Have you posted pics of it on here anywhere?
