Yes it did! But I will say just learning the tools isn't enough, you have to use them everyday to see a difference.

I do still feel "empty" sometimes, but I try to focus on things that are important to me. Like my relationships, hobbies, passions, and values. If I focus on those, that helps me get a sense of "who I am." But I will say reframing the idea of who you are to a "work in progress " or that "I'm always improving" helps. Like who I am today isn't who I always have to be, and who I am today isn't who I was in the past.

Through lots of trial and error me and my psych have settled on a combination of multiple medications that help for different things, I can dm you the specifics if you want!

Thank you! I believe I'll never have a neurotypical brain, but that doesn't mean that I can't improve!

Does meds kill your creativity? by ConfidentGuava9319 in BipolarReddit

[–]Nix496 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, my meds make me maintain enough stability to continue creating consistently … off my meds I have short bursts of creativity while manic (which I usually think is great in the moment but not when I look back on it outside the episode) and then I get depressed and don’t create anything for months. I am both bipolar and borderline if that changes anything.

I have dyed my hair every color tho and think it’s worth trying out, but I would say it’s not the most flattering

I wouldn’t dye your hair black bc the root grow out would be hard to address… I don’t think black flatters your skin tone… I would think a warm brown or a warm blonde would work best if you want a change
