When I have racing thoughts, all my reminder stickies are a mess and so is my to do list. Tangential thoughts, hard to prioritize. Whew. What an experience, Bird Dancer. Yes, many brilliant artists have been bipolar. Sometimes I call myself an idiot savant because I can make certain leaps for family decisions that prove to be right tho my thoughts might sound disorganized. A brilliant bipolar therapist friend says not to punish myself for not always thinking in a linear way. I find racing thoughts to be uncomfortable but when I have them I can’t always take the time to rest.
