Bipolar Debate

From a New York times news service :

The number of American children and adolescents treated
for bipolar disorder increased 40-fold from 1994 to 2003
researchers report today in the most comprehensive
study of the controversial diagnosis.
Some experts say bipolar disorder is over diagnosed.
The term, the critics say, has become a catchall applied
to almost any explosive aggressive child......
Most children who qualify for the diagnoses do not develop
the classic features of adult bipolar disorder, such as mania,
researchers have found. They're more likely to become
depressed. ..............end of news service.



It is my experience, that a true bipolar person is creative
in their manias and if you claim or some one else claims
you to be bipolar and you show no signs of creative genius,
then you most likely are not bipolar.
I believe that true creative genius is proven by its fruits.
As in music written, poetry written down on paper etc.
The more art that you have to offer the world, then the
more proof of your genius. It is the works of my hands,
that I have created that show my creative genius.
Remember, I am talking about artistic creative genius.
Someone might be a creative genius in a different category.
Then it will be that someone's created things that will
be their fruit. Whatever thing it is will be as a light, a glowing
orb that shows it's creators face in that same bright spot lot.
