For the past several months, I've been unconsciously singing a song called "Corner of the Sky" from the musical Pippin. I'm not sure anyone remembers this song, but some of the lyrics read:
Everything has its season;Everything has its time.Show me a reason and I'll soon show you a rh...

I just read the lyrics to the song you've been humming and I'd really love to hear it. Do you know who sings it? I'd like to try and download it from i-Tunes.
I am new to this site...and Bipolar too for that matter. I was diagnosed on 5th September, but I'm still struggling to accept that the doctors/counsellors are right. Some days I agree with them, but most days I think they're full of S***. Sorry, but that's how I feel. I've been in what they call a Manic/Mixed episode for 11 weeks now and the medication they put me on is doing absolutely nothing for me. My doctor had me on 2000mg of Lithium/day and I ended up with Lithium poisoning, so she has cut it back to 1000mg/day. I am also on Seroquel 200-300mg at night and all that does is help me sleep. My thoughts & behaviours are still the same as before I started taking anything!
I also have major head pain (way beyond a migraine) and it has been like that for 8 days now. Panadeine Forte was like having lollies so my doctor gave me Endone. She prescribed 2 tabs twice a day, but I had to have 4 and even then it only slightly took the edge off...for 1 day! I went back to my doc the next day and she prescribed Oxycontin 20mg and said to take 1-2 tabs twice a day. Taking 2 took the edge off for two days, but today I have had to have 4, which equates to 80mg and I can still feel it, but I can actually look at things without having to hold my head.
I had a CT scan on Friday and go back for the results tomorrow (Monday 22nd September).
Do you know anyone else with Bipolar who gets head pain like I do?

Given your relationship and interest in mental illness, we thought that you might be interested in a campaign recently launched by Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre Neurosciences Department.
Did you know that, in Canada:
§ Nearly one in three people will be affected by a mental illness in their lifetime?
§ Almost 46% think people use the term mental illness as an excuse for bad behaviour?
§ One in four are fearful of being around those who suffer from serious mental illness?
This October, help Sunnybrook Foundation and Presenting Partner, Manulife Financial confront the stigma of mental illness and raise funds to support mental health research and care.
Let's Face This - Confront the Stigma of Mental Illness
is an innovative grassroots web campaign designed to raise much-needed funds and awareness in support of mental health treatment and research. It is being launched in conjunction with Mental Illness Awareness Week, taking place from October 5 - 11.Why is it important?
Despite the prevalence and impact mental illness can have on people's lives and the lives of their loved ones, in many cases it goes undiagnosed and untreated.
Why? Because there is a persistent stigma surrounding mental illness which can leave individuals too ashamed to seek help; too embarrassed to confide in a loved one, and left feeling alone and helpless.
What Can You Do To Help?
We invite you to visit the website - letsfacethis.ca - and post a photo and message on the "Tree of Support". With each new photo added, the "tree" will grow, symbolizing growing awareness, education, fundraising and hope for those suffering from mental illness.
I invite you to join me and countless others confront the stigma of mental illness.
Let's Face This
together and confront the stigma of mental illness.Let's Face This
reminds us that mental illnesses, like depression and anxiety, are not the result of personality flaws or character weakness, but, like other illnesses, are biological in nature. And like other medical conditions, respond to treatment and care.reply

If people believe hypomania makes people truly out of control that gives justification to all the people out there that would strip us of our civil rights and drug us up against our will in our homes as well as in hospitals.

I find myself too depressed these days to sing while i'm in my car like I used to. I wonder why can't I just let it go. Removing a vice grip that is depression can be very hard at times and mine has lasted over a month. I hurt inside because I can't sing to my children, I can't sing in the car and even when I listen to music online while surfing I can't push myself to fully enjoy it. I may cry or smile when I hear a song I like, but I feel like I have lost who I'm. I think "what is wrong with me, what happened to the vivatious girl I was?" The answers are never simple and I'm at the taking it minute by minute. In the past month I was committed, my ex mother in law called CPS on me because I wouldn't tell her where I was, but that I was ill, I got into a car accident, my mother kicked me out of my home, my fiance's mother and father took me in, but the chaos bothers my future mother-in-law and myself cause we have a mentally and physically disabled child, a bipolar ADHD 11 year old and my quiet yet upset daughter who is holding in all of her pain and loss from being pulled out of her school and having to go from an only child to a sister of two. She sufferes the most because my future mother-in-law does everything for her grandaughter, and thinks that we should be nicer to her but all the other children have free reighn to be disciplined. I don't know what to do. So again, I don't find solice in music, which has been my life line for so long. I'm walking on eggshells because my mentally ill mother taught me that if i'm not doing something for her then I'm worthless. I just don't know how to live anymore. I'm sick of this and I have learned my lesson about suicide in the past, but I need people to talk to and someone to share their story with me. I feel like i'm in a rut. I'm litterally loosing my mind! Thank you for letting me post this and I hope someone out there can lend a helping hand to help my recovery from this unstable and scary disease. Namaste.

If music/singing makes you feel better (or used to) I can really relate. The first thing I do in the morning is turn on Pandora.com (and I am not advertising the site.) But it allows you to plug in the name of certain artists and/or songs that you really like and creates your own radio station(s) around them. It is so good at matching the mood of the music you like, the style, the sound, etc. Amazing. I listen to it a lot and it makes me feel better. And it is free for 40 hrs a month, which is all I ever need. Maybe it will help you connect with your old appreciation of music, and you might even find yourself sinking along. I hope so. Hope this helped.

There are a number of theories as to what lies beneath this troubling disorder. One prominent school of thought is that an anxiety disorder develops when children come to fear their own unconscious impulses and use defense mechanisms to lessen the resulting anxiety. What distinguishes obsessive-compulsive disorder from other anxiety disorders is that the battle between anxiety-provoking internal impulses and anxiety-reducing defense mechanisms is not buried in the unconscious but rather is played out in explicit and dramatic thoughts and actions. The internal impulses usually take the form of obsessive thoughts, and the defenses appear as counter-thoughts or compulsions
