I’m bipolar, type one for those of you who understands the significance of that label. Ive recently gotten stable and, as a classic manic depressive, I feel empty, dead, and I’m mourning the artistry and passion that I’ve experienced during manic episodes. I need to find a way to feel like what I do matters after my threshold for feeling and caring has been pushed to the utmost extremes by 26 years old. I feel like I can’t create anything and I’m mourning the life I lived when everything was so destructive but so grand. The Romantic Sublime comes to mind as the closest approximation of what I felt. Please help, I feel awful.
