If you haven't read it yet, "Touched With Fire"
by Kay Redfield Jamison is classic reading on the genetic link between creativity and depression
(subtitle: Manic-depressive Illness and the Artistic Temperament). Even if you haven't been diagnosed as (or consider yourself to be) manic-depressive, there's interesting study on how psychiatric medications affect creativity, and fascinating tables on different creative personalities (poets, writers, composers, musicians, artists) who suffered from depression,
bipolar disorder, suicide or suicide attempts, and commitment to a psychiatric hospital or asylum.
