Bipolar really doesn't make for more creative. There are plenty of uncreative and average to below average intellects running around the world with bipolar, many more of those dummies than DaVincis.

But hey, maybe I just have a caffeine and acidic food problem, heck maybe it is gluten, refined sugars or aspartame that's why I'm not creative.
I have always agreed with that. Non-creative bipolars always existed, they just did not make any marks, and thus are not counted. This creates a skewed perception that bipolar equates with enormous contribution to humanity.
