I wonder if the mood disorders are causal.
For instance, the largest mood disorder was anxiety. Let me recast anxiety as "overly caring". An anxious person may work 3x as hard at a presentation or an exam.
I don't want to glamorize mental disorders, but I think this might not be a coincidental connection.
- dsnuh 9y agoI'm bipolar, on medication for it. During my manic periods I have unbridled creativity. During my lows I can't bring myself to do much of anything. It's a double edged sword, and one I would never want to willingly give up. The key is learning to recognize and manage your swings to as much of your advantage as you can. I don't think recognition that there are blessings with every curse is glamorizing it.
