Sugar and Salt: My Life with Bipolar Disorder

Sugar and salt is an example of the opposites one feels with the mood changes that occur with bipolar disorder. The actual phrase came from a song written by Tracey Belland of Voice of the Beehive titled Monstors and Angels, a song voicing the feelings of a person with bipolar disorder.

There are monstors, there are angels
There's a peacefulness and a rageinside us all
There is sugar and there is salt
There is ice and there is fire in every single heart
There are monstors , there are angels
