A place to share stories, concerns and challenges facing creative people who live with bipolar disorder, depression, or have a loved-one who is. Most important, I hope this will be a place of SUPPORT, laughter and POSITIVE energy for us all to share and enjoy. Because there is such a large number of famous intellects and artists who are/were bipolar, there is a strong belief that there is some correlation. Some examples:Paul Gauguin, Vincent Van Gogh, Michelangelo, Monticelli, Georgia O'Keeffe, Jackson Pollock, Irving Berlin,, Tchaikovsky, Schumann, Edgar Allan Poe, Charles Dickens, Hemingway, Victor Hugo,Mary Shelley.... the list is a very, very, very long one.
