So, am I creative because I'm nuts or am I nuts because I'm creative? Sounds a bit like a chicken and egg question really ;o). At any rate, you can probably chalk it up more to the slight differences between individuals than due to any type of mental illness. They're character traits, and perhaps creative people share a lot of the same character traits, but that doesn't equal something being wrong with the mind ;o).Something I think is lost on a lot of shrinks these days. I really don't think I need therapy or meds to stem my creativity or my need to create things. They don't interfere with my life since I'm able to lay them down and get on with living ;o).
