There aren't too many posts in here.

It's understandable, since our condition makes it hard to laugh and talk about other things.

I think we have creative and caring people here, and there should be more posts dammit!Tongue

Anyway, my new musical obsession is "Rome" by Danger Mouse. Anyone heard it? IT's a soundtrack to a spaghetti western which never existed. Jack White (Marry me!) is on there too. It is stark, stripped down, groovy, visual and amazing.

Hi skullhappy--I think those with bipolar illness do tend to be more creative and feeling than the polulation as a whole. It would be nice to get more posts not only on dealing with the illness but the interesting creative aspects of the individual. So I'm with you on that one. No, I hadn't heard music you refer to and will definitely check it out. Keep posting and hugs,
Abilify 5 mg
Prestiq 50 mg
Adderall 45 mg
Wellbutrin 450 mg
Lamictal 150 mg

Danger Mouse... I have heard them on Alt Nation on XM. I'm not sure it's the song you're talking about. Next time I hear it I'll look at the name.

He was in Gnarles Barkely if that name means anything....he's worked with people I can't remember their names right now. oh the guy from The Shins, called "Broken Bells" that one is very good too. And yes, Danger Mouse is the worst name in the world for an artist! Tongue
