I do feel depression set in from time to time, and when I do, I acknowledge and know how to address it. It's exactly like you said, @hiddenblade. It's taken me almost 40 years to have the awareness to see the signs, and consequently, know how to keep it at bay, but it's almost always art related. Feeling depressed initially, does make me feel like I don't want to create anything, but forcing myself to start, there's typically a moment where I write something or draw something that sparks the cure. I just need to get excited about something, then it makes me run away.
