That's actually really interesting. I imagine a lot of creative types are like you...
I think it's ok to love any and all parts of us. Every part of us has helped us (or tried) in some way. It sounds like you just want to have more control over how/when emotions are released. I think you'll find a balance.

Sometimes I wonder that myself- how many artists, actors, and musicians go through the same thing? Personally I feel like my intense emotions give me the gift of insight, but left unchecked can reek havic on my personal life when cycling through too many at home or at work...
My dad always used to say I was like a sponge because I'd absorb and hold onto so much stuff emotionally. I don't know how medically true that would be in terms of potentially being bipolar but it is something I also think about.
