Does depression kill your writing creativity or elevates it?

>> No.15374880

Kills it. However depressive types are more introspective and that reflection and deep thinking may manifest in more insights into the world and psychology that will act as the raw material for future writing.
However I've found in my own experience that when I'm depressed, I don't have the discipline nor the inspiration to write or be creative. It seems too pointless to do so and then months go by and I realize I wasted it all.
So yes, it depression kills your creativity.

manic suffering gets my dick real hard. i've written the stuff i liked the most when i was spiraling out of control like a rabid dog. It wasn't my usual sluggish, depressive malaise, but something catastrophic that made me hate myself and resent everything I had in my life in an active way. That's usually what gave me a good kick in the pants, having something to prove to myself.

""depression"" isnt real and was created by big psych and pharma as an excuse to sell you bullshit "treatment" of something that doesnt even exist. Pro tip, faggot boy: everyone is sad once in a while, too bad get over it get laid and go to a party like a normal person

it doesn't kill my creativity but it lowers the bar on the acceptable quality filter. it leads to a point where everything i write seems like crap, objectivity goes down the toilet and honestly why bother

In most people depression completely stifles creativity. However there are a select few individuals who, because of the depression acting as a kindling, reach heights in their work they would have never achieved in other circumstances.
