When I was younger I had fashion lines but only in my head. I'd design clothes while laying in bed. It was fun, I didn't lay in bed thinking ugh I have to be up early. Zero frustration. Sometimes I redesign my house. I stopped designing clothes by now. Now instead of that I have become an interior decorator on those days. Is this the creativity without the material? Lol

There was only one time I can remember actually going out and getting material. I bought a bunch of canvases and did acrylic painting and was actually pretty good but still had insecurities and felt like a fake artist during that phase. During that same period I had taken up music lessons and started a small business (in my head) which led me to put an ad and get clients with nothing to give them (oops). Was this hypomania? I'm normally a pretty lazy person so I know it wasn't my norm. But during hypo isn't a person much more confident? I wasn't but I was confident enough to try.
