JJ Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 When you are sick do you find moe or less inspiration to write? Me I can't think of anything but Aeropostal and JC Penny's (Note: Me and my friend (a girl) went shopping). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 [size=1]I tend to have more quiet time when I'm sick, and I guess I write/draw a lot more. Whether said work could actually be considered [i]inspired[/i] is another matter entirely.[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I'm sick, I write more because I have alot more free time, not because I feel inspired. And I am almost never sick, but when I am, I am [i]really[/i] sick. So I don't do much of anything when I'm sick. :)[/b][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trumen Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 Yes, I do find inspiration when I am sick because it give mes time to think of what to do. Then every time I feel better I also very refreshed so I can do all the stuff I thought to do when I was sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Altron Gundam Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 If its b-ball season and I'm sick I play and go as much as I can during practice, if I happen to pass out, I'll leave it in my coach's hands from there lol. However, anytime else, I'll just chill and watch TV. I don't feel inspired cuz I feel like crap and can't think of anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Asphyxia Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 [color=darkred]I get less, because all my inspiriation comes from real life. If I'm not expiriencing real life, then I can't write about it, can I? Besides which, as Rikku said, I'm usually sleeping if I'm home sick...[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnum Apex Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 [font=trebuchet ms][color=darkblue]When I'm sick, I tend to watch A LOT of television, and I'll most likely enjoy whatever I'm watching. Think about it; it only takes your eyes and a little brainpower to pay attention and understand what's on the screen. Being sick usually makes your physical activities a pain, and as a result, watching television is overtly enjoyable when your body can't take on a simple task.[/color][/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikku Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 [color=0099ff]My eyes get tired from watching TV even when I'm not sick. But when I am sick and I actually try watching, all that's on is soap operas and those stupid court shows. I fall asleep in less than 5 minutes.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 I don't get inspiration when I'm ill; I just can't think clearly. Being sick just puts me in an awful mood--and it shows in whatever I do. There's no creativity. Plus, whenever I'm not feeling well, it's hard to strain my eyes or neck for long without upsetting my stomach. Now--when my emotions are at a certain degree (i.e., when I'm really happy, or really sad)--[i]that[/i] has a tremendous effect on what I write.

Desbreko Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 [color=indigo]Well, I'm sick right now...and reading this thread inspired me to write this post...so I guess you could say I found inspiration to write while being sick. :whoops: But seriously, though, being sick doesn't really affect the amount that I write. (Unless I'm so sick that I have to stay in bed and can't even get up to use the computer, anyway). It might give me more free time to work on something I've been writing, or I might come up with something to write during the time that I'm sick... But it's not like I come up with more things to write while I'm sick than other times. Overall, it really doesn't make much of a difference for me.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Macaiodh Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 [color=darkblue]Actually, I do get inspired. When I'm sick, I feel bad, & the best stuff I write is depressing. When I really feel bad, I tend to wallow in it. It's weird, I was going through my poetry & I noticd there are big time gaps from when I was happily in a relationship (I have about 10 years' worth of poems). Or happy, period. It's like I have no idea what to write about. But when I feel depressed, confused, etc., it's like a floodgate opening.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] [font=arial][size=1] I am soooooo like that. Emotions play a huge part in what I write. I write when something has happened in my life, and also like Lady Macaiodh.

GhostofSalvtore Posted March 3, 2003 Share Posted March 3, 2003 Usually I do because all I can do is just sit there, so I usually keep myself busy by somethin constructive like writing or drawing. But most of the time those drawing/writings get lost somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boredchick Posted March 3, 2003 Share Posted March 3, 2003 When I'm sick I can usually write depressing things better, because it's the way I feel. So, I guess I can find inspiration when I'm sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan L Posted March 3, 2003 Share Posted March 3, 2003 If I'm sick enough to be affected in any noticable way, I'm usually far too busy being sick to be doing anything that requires inspiration.. so no.. I don't get inspired when I'm sick.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
