I got hooked up with a musical couple some years back, very talented man and wife team. The guy was bi-polar and while we played together in a band, he went off his medicines.
I watched him write and record a fully produced album in a few weeks. The material was good, but he went off the deep end making it. Once that creative ride was over he shot straight down and was a complete mess for a long time. I liked both of them regardless of his mental condition, but after he went off his meds, he wreaked a lot of havoc in his life, even got tossed in jail a few times during that dark period. Needless to say I avoid both of them like the plague after that ordeal. It's a shame too, they both have so much talent, a real waste, because if he was level headed, he could have made it in the business.
I'm not trying to imply you may be bi-polar, or manic, but it does sound like it the way your talking. Be careful.
