Bipolar and Brilliant

It is pretty well known that a lot of really creative people are also mentally ill. I plan to showcase a different famous person with bipolar every month.


Robin Williams
I think we all know who he is so I don't think there is a whole lot of explaining to do. I chose him first because I think he is a brilliant actor. He can touch the old and the young through his comedy. One of my favorite movies he ever did was " What Dreams May Come". If you want to learn more about Robin Williams click here.

  1. its amazing how many people out there with Bipolar that can cope with life while there are others who hardly can function. And of course there is the middle line too...lol

    scary....but so true!

  2. You are very right...as long as people are medicated it is usually pretty treatable, but it is very hard for anyone to take mood altering drugs.

  5. wow. I am surprised to learn Robin Williams is bi-polar. He seems to have it under control. Not at all surprised by Kurt Cobain. Just goes to show how differently a condition can effect from one person to the next.
