The Panic Project

  • Mood: Peaceful
I might not be a good photographer yet,but I certainly felt in love with the art.
So,I decided to really put my heart out on this project,which is about fear,panic...

I suffer from panic syndrome,agoraphobia,depression and I'm also bipolar.Diagnosticated about 8 years ago,in treatment for 5 years.

Statistics says that 96% of people get cured,well,I think I'm in the 4% group.

Anyway,I thought that maybe I could at least get a little better if I tried to express myself from some kind of art, and also,I really would like to change some people's mind about that disorders,they're real,it can really ruins a person's life and no,it's not a silly thing.

You got what it takes to be an artist... :D
Most artists need to use chemicals so they can become sort of bipolar... don´t take it the wrong way I was just trying to see a positive side to it... :)
As for depression, I only know that sunshine helps a lot!
And the thing that really helps are friends, family and someone to love above (more than) yourself.
These are just things I came to learn with life.
Take care! :heart:

I also suffer from anxiety, panic attacks, and very mild agoraphobia... also from Restless Leg Syndrome (also a neruological disorder). I only mention that to let you know that I sympathize and empathize with you!

I think that any sort of outlet will help, but ART is one of the best... because it gets your creative juices flowing. Sharing your art can also be very cathartic because it lets you know how your work touches other people. Sometimes in obvious ways, and other times in ways that you hadn't thought of.

Keep up the great work! I'm thinking good thoughts for you :D

Join the club. I am also a bipolar/manic depressed artist. I would think most of us are. I tried medication but I gave up and am dealing with it. And, YES it does ruin your life, or makes it extremely difficult. What sucks about my case is it effects the things I love. Like painting and my daughter. Makes me not want to deal with them. That's the part that bugs me most. :( But I say F#@K It! and kick it in the face and carry on with my life. I'm here if you ever wanna talk.

I can understand how you feel. I was diagnosticated of Borderline disorder...I was under treatment, but I left it. I think that all those feelings were part of me, but, they´re are part of that fucking disorder. I get so sad when the told me...but, Art is a way to express all that confusion in my mind, and all those weird feelings...that´s my way of expression,my way to scape . Art is the best way to express yourself.

Good Luck ^^

Well Sorayamarx, I don´t know u and forgive me if I´m so ridiculous to post here something, because it´s rather personal, but I felt I have to do it... so forgive me if I seem rude to u or somethin... but I have to say (also if u don´t care):
I fell in love with your pictures and u are so damn talented and u have an eye for photography... i really love your pics... I have a good friend who´s also bipolar and he discovered that writing down certain things give him a kind of strenght... it liberates him a bit... donno how to express it, but I hope u understand... he always had doubts but some time ago he published his first book... and finally he sees something like a light in the dark...
I wish, that u could find it the same way in photography... u are so talented and beautiful... although I know only your pics, I wish u the best ever... (also if it sounds stupid or whatever... IT´S REAL!)...

Take care :)

It's good to bring this topi c to the public. I suffer from it as well, and I have been med free for some time.
It has had a devastating affect on my life.

I wish that people .. people with out these disordres understood how hard the world can be living with them.

So Bravo to you for taking steps to show them.

bastante!principalmente por ser um modo de expressar e ao mesmo tempo,uma distração....Fico mal eu pego a câmera e saio testando coisas novas e melhoro bem rá;pido.
