The purpose of this project is centered around the fact that Bipolar Disorder treatments can be very expensive and not readily available. Because of this, an alternative treatment option is needed. Music has a history of viability as a treatment option for serious mental illnesses so it is a reasonable assumption there may be a genre that would work as a treatment option for Bipolar Disorder, which falls under the serious mental illness category. This would allow those who struggle to afford or acquire treatments have an affordable and more accessible treatment option.
