its really hard to explain what i mean exactly. i just feel so bored and depressed when im not inspired, if you do annything creative like writing, painting, etc you may know the feeling of being inspired and motivated, its almost an addiction to me. the only problem is that i dont feel creative most of the time. also, how do i get this creative feeling more often?

    Nothing is worse than having a creative side and not feeling able to indulge it. It's like having a sexual urge but no partner (or hand). Creatively, when you're on fire and everything is flowing, it's amazing. Breathing life into things that didn't previously exist. But when you can't get there? Blah. I don't know where it comes from. Just enjoy it while you have it. And don't do anything that demotivates you.

    I know just what you mean. I draw, paint etc.
    I have a ton of artsy crap all over my room but most of the time i don't feel inspired enough to make anything good though. I'm usually not depressed from it though but bored, yes.

    I thought people get creative when they are depressed- maybe not

    This is how I feel right now, and it's driving me crazy! I'm hoping that this feeling goes away soon.

    Is your health bad? Perhaps you just need to find something fun, a fun idea just for you. You can feel creative anytime, eat well and make things fun.

    I don't feel depressed, if I'm not in the mood then I can't help that, I spend my time on other things until something inspires me.
