Bipolar, extremely vivid dreams. Bipolar or imagination?

Bipolar is a mental illness where you go from one extreme to the other. There's a chemical imbalance in the brain that causes the nuerons to misfire. Your unconscience mind, meaning when you dream, can resembal your conscience mind when your awake. Causing you to go from one extreme dream to another. Medication can also cause this to happen. Your dreams can also guide you to when your body is actually receiving the right medications to control or stabalize your symptoms. If you are being treated with meds and they are working right, then your dreams will settle back down. Always pay attention to your dreams because they can give you a good understanding to whats going on in your daily life. Keep in mind that dreams are mostly symbolic and metaphoric. The language is different than your daily normal language. You have to learn to pay close attention to your emotions in the dreams. When you wake up, immediatly write down all the key points in your dreams. Keep a daily journal. This would be very beneficial to take with you to your doctor appointments. Your dreams are also telling you that you are very creative and have the potential to be a great artist. Sounds to me like you 'are' a dreamer and always will be. You have a battle going on inside you and your dreams can help you sort it out. Even to the point where you will no longer need meds. You have a tremendous fear inside you that you need to face headon and once you do, your life won't be the same. Good Luck!
