I'm not bipolar but I can relate. When I was on Amitriptyline in the 80's, I went thru a real spiritual, uh, awakening, I guess you could say.
It faded after a time. Probably when I stopped the drug.
Since then, I have spiritual 'feelings' and pray but neither very much. I guess I'm what the Baptist's would call a backslider!
When someone I know is hurting badly or I'm hurting, or I've hurt someone unknowingly, I don't hesitate to ask for God's intervention. I still don't have a picture in my minds eye of what form God takes. I kinda think he's everywhere but mostly lives within us if we want.
I hope I'm making sense.Phil
ps...Good post Adam. It's all such a mystery.
