"Bipolars need to identify a safe obsession, something they can constructively aim their mania at so that they can constantly produce results. This would seem easy, but its not. Because of the erratic nature of the maniacal thoughts, you must find a project that has multiple venues. i.e. lots of things to explore." Quote form this Article

I tend to be quite obsessive. Sometimes I think It is the only the that keeps me going. I love it. I like to spend my time in learning pursuits. I will spend a lot of time on one idea or topic and funnel all of my ideas my resources, time and energy. It doesn't really matter what the project is. Once the ball is rolling It I keep it moving until I'm pretty proficient at what I'm doing.

It gets really interesting though I'm in hypomania/mania. I'm focused to the max. One time my topic was chess. I spent 2 months reading everything I could get a hold of on chess checking out strategy guides, chess riddles and many other books from the library. I played on-line games over and over. I did chess master pro on the computer. Chess was my life...

Now I rarely pick up a chess board, I don't mention chess in every other sentence. I don't wake up early and stay up late determining how to deal swiftly with an opponent. Its just not my current obsession!

I do however spend a lot of my free time. Scouring the web to find out how to promote my page. I do watch my web counter analyzing page trends and what catches my visitors interests. I do invest both my time, thoughts, and energy into working on my current obsessions building a web page.

The world Is out to change genetics and change who we are. I don't know if this is what I would want. I like the amount of focus and energy that my mind allows me to do.
