I've seen previews for that and it looks pretty sweet.
Back on subject... I wonder how well correlated so called mental illness is with so called intelligence and creativity.
Both are hard to measure thus getting a real correlation would be problematic.



yes and no..it use to be considered a mental illness...it's now realized it's probably a mitochondrial disorder of some sort..but since they don't know what causes it..and because insurance companies do not want to cover it..it's in a state of limbo for the most part

this is changing rapidly, though..sinec it is an ever increasing pandemic, at this point
