Manic-Depressive Illness


I am an artist with manic-depressive illness
or bipolarity as it is now days called. The music
below is a product of bipolarity as it is written
in the book Touched With Fire by Dr. Kay Jamison.
She connects bipolarity with artistic creative genius
& I am living proof of this. But there is a dark side
to bipolarity which leads to suicidal tendencies as
we have seen people kill themselves who have this
illness. Right now I am in one of those dark cycles
& I am praying that I can hang in there until the
up swing of my cycle turns to a good mania from
this dark depression. It is the price I must pay to
be able to create such beautiful piano music
as below. Please Enjoy all my art.
