Looking for some help. Bipolar Awareness: A Collection of Ideas Art and Poetry.

I am looking for people who are: Bipolar, Depressed, know someone who is either of those, or has some other kind of experience with what is commonly called "Mental Illness"

I much prefer the term "instability of the mind and thoughts" Lol

I am seeking artwork, poetry, your POV on mental illness, your experiences with Bipolar and other mood/mental disorders.. Lyrics, and so on. This is for a future publication of a 'scrapbook' of sorts...

If you think you have something to bring into this anthology, PLEASE reply here, or email me at: thelostindigo at yahoo dot com. (Or Comment on my page!!)

I am currently putting together a website as well, if you are interested in being featured there, either as a link to your website, DA page, or other form... such as a picture hosted there, or poetry on display, let me know! You will be added and quoted and correctly copyrighted should you so please! Anything added to the webpage can be removed at your request ASAP, I am on almost -every day- (Strike that I AM on every day!)

If you ALSO know of any open-source public domain-like information or images regarding mental illness or bipolar specifically, I would love to be given a link I need all the help I can get!!

If you have any questions, feel free to post.

And finally, I am willing to do such things as "contests" and give prizes (Likely to be subscriptions) to people who contribute and give it their all! (There is of course no such thing as losing, you will be featured on my account front page if you so choose to participate in activity or contest and whatnot. )

PS: I am looking for the positive outlooks on bipolar and mental illness as well as the negative, remember that there come both outcomes with most mental illnesses. (Van Gogh? Mozart? Hitler? Just the ups and downs!!!)
