Currently, I find myself in a balanced state, which has been a rare occurrence for me over the past 10 years. I’ve been weaving my way through the ups and downs of bipolar disease for along time, and in the last three months or so, aside from a minor blip of mania, thanks to a new psychiatrist, I’m in a place of stability. But now, it’s time for me to move forward with writing another album, and I’m faced with a new challenge, how do I write without the spurts of inspiration that are bred through a place of….well…. insanity?
