I stumbled on this comic from Extra Fabulous Comics today.
It really did feel like gaining a super power when I started my meds.

I struggle with creativity with or without meds. In this scenario I’d freeze at the idea of designing and building the birdhouse, but have no problem banging one out if I had a guide or set of instructions, then tweak to my liking later.
For me, designing from scratch is hard. Modifying an existing design to what I want is easier. Without meds, those designs stay in my head. With meds, I’m able to be realistic with my abilities and my needs to get to a completed project.
That’s what I took from this comic. The birdhouse wasn’t without creativity, it was more realistic to his skill level and he was able to finish it
Yeah I agree. I like finding existing projects and making them better.
It’s the guardrails of the existing project that helps our brains focus on what is needed
I never thought of that. You’re likely completely spot on.
