I hope you can find your way back to yourself. I've read in other thread you mention that you have visions. We should talk about that as I grew up with those experiences myself and have a lot of stories. I may start a thread here to invite others to share their stories. Not sure anyone will but I will put it out there.

If art interests you, I found an art gallery in Portland run by an artist who has bipolar depression.
Yes, visions are quite, uh, controversial, I have found and most people seem to think I am even more crazy than the previous very high level of crazy they felt I had whe they hear about mine. "You werre just psychotic."

Okay. whatever you say.

I have been to the Pepin Gallery with a group when I was IP. It is very cute and she is a nice woman. It's tiny. One of the PDX artists who shows there I personally know and had no earthly idea that, in addition to being a bpiolar advocate, she is a nationally known painter. Amazing people, you are!!
