This sounds so familiar and mirrors a good deal of my own journey with depression, anxiety and citalopram. You are definitely not alone. I, too, have noticed a marked change in my creative drive and output over the years. Thank you for writing about your experience.
Hi Wen. Thank you for reading and it is comforting to know I am not alone in the creative block with citalopram. I find it really frustrating! But I have found doing creative things with no pressure is helping ease the flow. Colouring in for example I can focus, there is no pressure and I am able to complete the task. Im just taking it a step at a time. Go easy with yourself. Much love xx
Thanks for the lovely reply. I've been feeling pulled to do what you've mentioned, doing creative things without pressure. I think this is a good way to rebuild those muscles and still go easy on ourselves in that way. Much love xx
