I have been an artist ever since I can remember.

Molestation, self-mutilation... did not kill me.

I too love that feeling of waking up excited with the need to write another poem. It happened to me, again, this morning - with the first true poem I've written in more than two years. They told me it wasn't bi-polar (I'm too focused when I'm buzzing) but it sure was The Slough of Despond. But you've checked most of the boxes. You're clearly a born survivor - a\nd a talented poet. Please have a look at my poem 'Scary Fixation' - and the others too while you're at it. May the pure light within you guide your way on. - Tony
