Welcome to the 'The Ups And Downs Project' website!

The Ups And Downs Project is a musical story about how a patient and his environment deal with bipolar problems. Various instrumental themes treat fear, anger, sadness, I-can-handle-the-world and good advice.

The story captures the feelings of who is close to the patient and how everyone is looking for a way to deal with them.

The listener can fill in which themes belong to which feelings and persons. The track titles can help you with that.

The common thread follows a line of tensions, how they are resolved, and how we can eventually proceed.
