How Does Mental Illness Impact an Artist's Work?

[rewebster]

i have been actually, i just wanted some peoples opinions on the matter, the whole project isn't about peoples opinions, but its a very helpful thing to have, I've already had 3 months for this and have done a large amount of research in artists biographies and researching mental health. Although to get high marks and to create a successful project i have to do more than that, i have visited various art museums, interviewed an artist, compared artists work and wanted some people opinions on artists and mental health.I thought some people might be kind enough to share their opinions which most people have been, and i thank them for that.

When is your paper due?

Do you like reading things of/in that professional field?

Usually not so much, because I am focused on cognitive rather than abnormal psych, but we had some overlap last year when I worked on a study of how different mental health professionals use DSM IV criteria to make diagnoses. We also did a few studies with lay people, so it is interesting to hear what their concepts of it are and how they think it is used (especially from people who aren't psych undergrads, because that's about all we get in the lab!)

Most of the time, I would guess, there's no fresh cases (everyone already has a diagnosis), ---so where does my opinion of it fit on the Bell shaped curve?

were you looking for percentages?---(# correctly or incorrectly diagnosed?)

I'm watching football, and one of the players was asked something- and he said like -that his team IS going to the Superbowl --and the interviewer said something about being mentally prepared, and (it sounded like) the player answered, "Yeah, I'm already there,--you know...--your mind doesn't know the difference between fake and fiction"
