Losing my imagination?

Maybe I'm just losing my mind.    The medication I take to curb my anxiety and panic attacks leaves me feeling like I have no creativity left.   


I know that isn't true.  I could come up with tons of things to do, creative things.  However, my energy level to get me started just isn't there.  That is because of my medications and my condition.


Meanwhile, I was thinking about a way back when scenario... I would have these elaborate ideas and from those ideas came inspiration which brought actual things to life.  Sometimes the inspiration would just be to deep clean the house and ta da I would get it done.


BUT, you knew it was coming... those elaborate ideas often came without my medication so when I sunk into the throws of panic or depression it was severe.  Doomsday scenario kinda stuff.


In order to get back to the feel good release of creativity, I'm just going to force myself to do things.  First off, write this post.  I'm a good talker, story teller but I let my conditions keep me quiet most of the time.  No more.  I may not post every day but I will write something. 


The next step will be to do some crafting outside of the internet.  I have lots of unfinished objects.  I will set a goal to complete one a month, clear the shelves for something else. 


Wish me luck.
