I'm trying to keep up with my doctor's instructions, but sometimes I worry that I have ruined something. I tread lightly so as not to waken the beast. At the same time, a renewed creativity has opened doors for me that I thought were lost. The artistic life was layered with dust. I can breathe now as the tender shoots poke out of winter's death. Life may slowly return. I don't know. I need the energy to expand my small circle.
People with Bipolar are very creative. Many, many famous ones, and I can't think of one! You may be coming out of your depression, and the energy will return. Especially if you go into a hypomania state. SORRY, I don't mean to scare you. It's just I don't get any "off time" from this disorder, I'm either in a down cycle or an up cycle, or moving in between.
Dust off those brushes or whatever!!
