I have a few, some (more) related to mania, some to (disorganised) schizomania, some to depression, some to BPD. So here are four, one for each, respectively: Don't Stop Me Now (Queen), The Great Pretender (The Platters), Knockin' On Heaven's Door (Dylan), Jealous Guy (Lennon). Another BPD one would be To Love Somebody (Joplin). My favourite, since it could be about both BP and BPD and because I've always felt it describes (a part of) me rather accurately from a very young age (same with Jealous Guy), a very long time before I knew what BP or BPD was, is (maybe) Ruby Tuesday (The Rolling Stones).
Can you play a song the moment you've heard it?

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
See Me, Feel Me, Touch Me, Heal Me.
