    I am trying to find out more about this exact theory. I have bipolar and i am super creative. If i can't be creative, then i completely shut out. I am searching for the link between bipolar, creativity, and entrepreneurship. ❤❤❤

    Does it involve the COMT genotype? People with slow Met/Met COMT tend to be more creative

    The explanation for a reason has to be described on subconscious level with as many explanations and connections to society, culture, nature, not to even mention physics and mathematics, as possible to be able to draw some conclusion about bipolar disorder, not just a brief and light explanation by a doctor 😆
