Description
Bipolar disorder is difficult to treat and
diagnose. Diet and exercise can be helpful
but because mood effects whether or
not one chooses to exercise or diet, it

Medication itself causes problems
Even when medications works, the side-effects
Can be mild to horrific

I left comments for you over on the comments section. Saying how much I love your painting. And, I go on about how I have Bipolar II, also. ~ Shan

A comment on Lianne's mssg. I also have up and terrible down moods. The meds barely work marginally, I still get highs and lows. (maybe bc I forgot to take dose last nite. And, I don't care. ;) Thankfully, I'm a mild case, have no violent or mean behavior. I'm harmless ;) It is awful, as there is still stigma over people w/mental illnesses, issues, no matter what level of seriousness. 'May we have more creative energetic & happy moods.' Painting is the best therapy. ~ ; )

I love your painting, 'I have Bipolar 2.' I've have Bipolar 2 also, or so they say !! ;) I had a wonderful creative-energy painting session last night until 5 a.m. ! ; )

Someone I love has severe bipolar disorder and the medications are a terrible burden. They may stabilize but they sometimes take away incentive, suppress emotion...yet without them life is chaos of impulses and bad choices. This is so perfect to visualize the pain of that...and the plea is simply "I just want to be normal." I know it sounds presumptuous but there is gold amidst all that pain - the incredibly creative means by which bipolars can express themselves in talent like this. And sometimes, you find someone who loves you deeply through it all.

intense painting Lisa! Is this in acrylics? The bas-relief effect makes in intriguing and adds a lot to the meaning of the piece v/p
Lisa Piper replied:
Thank you, I only use recycled materials in my work. This is a mixture of fabric paint, spray paint, then I mix house paints into smaller batches & create my own colors . I am bi-polar, I am doing good now.. But, I struggle ( I think like many woman) with how I look outside with how I feel inside . I want people to not be afraid, or always wear a mask. xoxo Lisa
