In my experience, I had writer's block for ten years. All of my writing at the time was trash and I gave up. Once I started school, I had to build myself up...write essays...write essays with my own style...push the envelope, push the envelope...I had to put myself out there, and now I'm taking creative writing fiction and this is the first time I am writing fiction in ten years. I am so nervous because I don't know what I'm going to come up with.

Also, I didn't go straight into writing fiction either, I tried something entirely new for me--poetry. For the past six months I've churned out 40 poems, and I have NEVER written poetry before.

In essence, my "suggestions" are either take a break from it, push the envelope when you think you're ready, or try an entirely different medium than what you're used to writing.

I am taking 900mg lithium and 20mg zyprexa...
