This Comedian Nails Why The Mental Illness + Creativity Connection is Ridiculous

[merindab]

I used to really worry that medications would harm my creativity and it’s part of why I resisted taking them. It hasn’t. If anything it’s allowed me to be more focused and able to complete things. My imagination hasn’t changed just because I’m on anti-depressants.

[hollowedskin]

a lot of my family didnt want me to start medications because they thought it would impact my ability to create, and I believed them. Now im getting better and better with my art because i dont have to fight through the brainfog or the constant panic attacks and can dedicate my energy to my work. Antidepressents didnt take my emotions away, they made them easier to handle.

[dubiousculturalartifact]

also Van Gogh was literally in an asylum receiving mental health treatment when he painted ‘Starry Night’. It was one of the most stable & productive periods of his life, despite the fact that wasn’t hugely effective treatment, because they didn’t really have modern understandings of what things work on mental illness. Like, you know. Medication.

[hirakumblr]

This is why we don’t romanticize mental illness or chronic disease.

[atomatowriter-deactivated202211]

ALSO because I am reading a book of his letters right now, Van Gogh himself addressed the idea that the best art came from pain and said that his art tended to suffer when his depression was hitting pretty hard. So don’t even pull that shit where you give his untreated depression credit for his art. Van Gogh would have hated that, and if antidepressants/better treatment of mental illness HAD existed then we might have even more of his work now.

I have been actually creating things now that I am medicated, whereas before I had ideas but I couldn’t make them materialize.

[wheeloffortune-design]

What people tend to gloss over is that creativity and art are not only inspiration, but also WORK. Lots of work. Refining a technique and developing an idea and editing until it’s actually good, that takes patience and focus and dedication. Yeah, mental illness may give you weird crazy ideas, but it also stops you from making them reality. 

People say that art can be made with mental illnesses but they always forget that art is WORK, real work, hard work, constant work. 

not-so-friendly reminder to unfollow me if:

u think autism is a disease or illness

u think autism needs to be “cured”

u support Autism Speaks or organizations like it

u “feel bad” for ppl with autism and their families

u think autistic children are a burden to their parents/guardians 

u don’t believe in getting children vaccinated because vaccines “cause autism”

i’m biased because i do prefer overly off model animation (where at worst it looks a bit weird to me) to overly on model animation because the latter usually translates like this

Baby bird season is incoming and I’d like to remind everyone that birds do not have a significant sense of smell. Bird parents will not reject birdlets because you have handled them.

If you see smol birbs with few or no feathers on the ground, you can safely put them back into their nest, bird parents will still care for them.

If you see smol birbs with some or most feathers on the ground, please leave them there, as bird parents are probably nearby watching and feeding.

[jumpingjacktrash]

nakey bird = accidentally fell out, is cold and scared, put back in nest! if you can’t reach the nest, try to put it on a wide branch or fork so predators can’t get at it as easily.

scruffy feather bird = starting to try the fly thing, not very good at it. only put in nest/branch if predators abound, i.e. you have four outdoor cats and they’re licking their chops.

fluffy feather bird = smol fly guy! do nothing. can probably get away from predators and will flip its shit if you pick it up.

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

Reblogging this because I’d always heard the ‘Don’t touch a distressed bird its mom will reject it’ thing treated as fact before now, I didn’t realise it wasn’t true…
