Things are looking up, but also the questions and possible issues pop up more now that I am working on so much in therapy.

Stay where you are and count your blessings. A higher salary would come with commensurate stress and performance expectations. I've been in art for 19 years and art is hard. You are super high-performing for bipolar, and you wouldn't want to jeopardize your stability (necessary for marriage and a family) by sabotaging yourself with taking on too much pressure at work.
