Embracing your Creativity did not create your problems. It just exposed them.

Remember, creating more might make you feel like you have more problems, or make you feel bad, sad, or in a depressed mood, perhaps even frustrated or angry all the time, not because this is a natural thing that happens the more creative you become, or the more you create stuff, but because it makes you expand your awareness and raise your standards.

Creating more just gave you a boost to your intelligence and awareness that makes you able to realise how messed up your life really is. 

Creativity did not create that sadness or that screwed up life or bad circumstances. 

It just made you more stimulated and capable of becoming aware of these things.

It made you see your problems clearly. 

It made you notice why your life sucks. 

It made you see why your circumstances are unlivable and horrible, and that you can no longer tolerate that. 

Creativity did not bring those reasons for suffering to being. It just made you know that the only thing that is preventing you from raising your standards is the nature of your life and circumstances. 

Creativity did not create those circumstances and reasons for your suffering. They were there from the start with disregard to whether or not you’re creative. 

You just became rewarded enough to be able to become aware of those circumstances and reasons why your life sucks, and highly intelligent enough to no longer gaslight yourself when it comes to whether or not your life really sucks. 

The higher your intelligence, the lesser your tolerance to negative circumstances and painful stuff will be.

You cannot access those neurons that can detect why you are suffering and why your life sucks without enough Dopamine, Serotonin, and reward, and you got that from being massively Creative. 

Giving more time and energy to creative expression does not create more problems. It simply gives you the mental capacity to see them as they are, and feel more pain because of them, and no longer be able to tolerate any of them. All of this requires higher intelligence, stimulation, energy, Dopamine, Serotonin, and sense of reward. 

Stop associating Creativity with pain. Stop associating Creativity with failure in life. It has nothing to do with Creativity, no matter how time or energy consuming Creativity can be. 

There’s no excuse for not being Creative. 

If you are creative and you are not making the most out of your creativity, you are doing so on purpose. It is your decision, and I don’t know why you chose to do so.
