I should be asleep right now...
A long time ago I was on anti-depressants. I wrote a lot... a lot of poetry. It was easier for me sketch and draw and I felt much more inclined to be creative. Since I've been off the drugs for several years, I haven't written but one poem a year, usually when drunk. :/
I feel like something is missing because I never bothered to fully cultivate my creativity. If I didn't pick up an artistic skill immediately, I gave up. I have many artistic interests but not the will power to actually pursue them. I have also an obsession with getting the "right" materials to paint or sketch or what ever, and won't even bother to try until I've got them.
I have, also, really rotten handwriting... I've tried to improve it, but it feels like a lost cause.
In any case... advice... or commiseration would be appreciated. I don't really know where I want to go with this post... but thank you.
