I've noticed that I'm my most creative when I'm depressed, like when I'm off my pills for an extended period of time I've noticed that I'm better at drawing and writing music, hell even my poetry becomes better... anyone else notice this?

I've noticed that I'm never creative. I hate myself and everything I do too much to work on creative projects.
And then I hate myself even more for doing nothing.

Not OP, but I'm not creative too.
It takes research and practice. Creativity is basically observation at this point, patterns
Particularly drawing. Don't fucking draw a symbol, draw the thing in itself.
The thing is, I can draw, but my drawing has a very rough feeling to it.
Because I don't practice
I don't want to
I want to die.

You're a meme! Fucking laughed out loud! Only bullshitters without real depression think they're more creative when they have depression.
"Oh I'm so deep because I'm sadder than everyone." No, if you had real depression you wouldn't be able to move when you woke up, and all you wish for is more sleep or death. Real depression feels like you're constantly witnessing your infant child dying and you can't look away.
Maybe because depression gives you some sort of adrenaline? Worrying amps me up sometimes. Focus on the feelings you experience while drawing and focus on bringing out those feelings when doing something else.

You sound like an (absolute)
Idiot.
when I'm depressed I just lay around in bed and all my artwork looks like shit to me and I wish I had the energy to kill myself
doesn't sound like you really have a mental illness desu

Lonelier people are more creative, I saw some random headline about it not sure if it's true. I make YouTube videos when I'm depressed though so its true for me

I know this feeling; it's not depression; it's deprivation. I occasionally skip sleeping or eating for a few days and my writing is much better in that state (and social deprivation works too, to an extent)

It's diagnosed bud, I have chronic depression

I said better, not good, it's all shit don't get me wrong, but I get inspired to write more the more depressed I am I guess
