I’m getting a book out of the library about using your left hand to awaken your right brain. I don’ know if it will work but it’s worth a try.

I think that has to do with a ‘blockage’. Being out of tune with yourself.

My opinion is that meditation and similar practices help remove the blockage.

I’m like that for years, but I should prove it!

@Indecisive it’s called cognitive impairment, and I suffer from it as well.
I have lost some of my creativity and I hope to recover it.
My cognitive symptoms in the past year were so severe that I couldn’t study or read at all,
and I should be highly talented in these things.
I hope to recover my creativity, but I already today noticed a certain improvement in cognition as I was able to study to a certain degree.

Huh, maybe you could be creative about the ideas of not having your creativity. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Paint a picture of the elements your experiencing.

a lot of APs stop dopamine receptors, dopamine playing a major role in reward-motivated behavior system.
Most types of rewards increase the level of dopamine in the brain.

So possibly if you took APs it cut you short, but all for the good purpose of coming back to level grounds again.

SSRI’s could possibly help in that, but I wouldn’t really refer a medication based off of wanting more creativity.

I know! Just wondering if any current med could help a bit with that.
I don’t think it will come better by itself :confused:

I’m on antidepressants and not APs :slight_smile:

Without meds e(Y)e Create Long 10min. SonggG’s in tha middle of tha Nite , Around 3 a.m. was when , , e(Y)e would Pour Out Creativity and Opinions … ,

e(Y)e (without meds) , Fynde myself to be Completely Paranoid , So tha SonggG’s would be my Screaming into tha Nite , Quietly towards tha Stars in tha Sky … ,

So , to put it Bluntly , There are no meds to Help with Creativity , My Paranoia Says meds are Poison … ,

My trusting Commonsense Says , Tha Doctors are Clueless , which is why they are trying to Silence us … ,

Pretty much Paranoid about tha Possible truth of Doctors … ,

Less meds tha Better , it will be a Fight , either way it will Continue to Puzzle everyone … ,

e(Y)e wish you well ,

& Remember , , ,

Patience is a Virtue .

APs knock out your creativity. I’ve found going to the minimum possible dose is a way to regain some creativity. I’m on olanzapine 7.5mg and haldol 2.5mg any higher of either of these medications I notice a drop in my creativity.

I’m not in any APs, when I become ill all that turn out of my head, so I think I just have to accept that maybe… Or try meditation too sounds like a good idea.
