I think artists just feel more. If anyone saw the world through an artists eye they would all be on the borderline of madness and greatness

For me creativity is the escape from mental illness.

We're all tainted. I can't say I've ever bet a truly sane, adjusted person.

As I teach my residents: "Normal" is just a person you don't know very well.

Drugs raise mood. Art raises spirit. I couldn't agree more. My artistic outlet was what was missing in healing my CPTSD. A huge hole has been filled and it is hard to keep art/life balance and not get obsessive about it lol.

OCD might cause someone to keep practising the piano non stop and succeed piano playing to a level

amazing video

Hi I'm currently doing a project on famous artists with mental illness, and to start my project I'm looking at the link between mental illness and creativity, I was wondering where I can find the study on 1,200,000 swedes which found writers were more likely to be Schizophrenic, Bipolar, Unipolar, have anxiety or substance abuse or suicide. Just because I'd like to read the article or where it was published so I can read into it a bit more. Thank you!

Here is a link to the paper and an abstract of it: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23063328 Here is a nice PRESI presentation about the data made, I believe, by the authors, but I'm not sure: prezi.com/q4qa5xk3mxy4/mental-illness-suicide-and-creativity-40-year-prospecti/ Hope this helps.
