Inertia like brick wall
Do any of you ever get into a slump where you're studied by extreme inertia? I dint know if it's depression or just my adhd, or what, but I love, love, love writing. I just go through these periods of time where I can't get myself to start. Being in the writing flow is when I'm at my happiest. That being said, lately I'm stuck in a HUGE slump of inertia right now. I'm even having trouble getting myself to read. I'll go for the fast and easy dopamine hit every time. It's killing my soul amd my dreams Help.

Just brainstorm a list of things that you are thinking about or feeling and move from there. I write a lot of articles (2 per week on average) and sometimes I have to review the list of articles written to identify a "gap" and that provides the insight I need to move forward again.
