1. Even though I chose a rather practical career path to study in college (Criminology), I've always been drawn to and participated in the arts. Music (I played guitar once upon a time) and theater (I did plays and musicals all through high school. I still have a fondness for Broadway and the West End even today!) were a particular love.
That said, I don't know if I would consider myself "creative" per se. Maybe more "lateral thinking." I like to see the problem from different angles and find the solution that's not immediately obvious.
2. My current meds: no. The ones I've been on before: yeah. They didn't dull anything, but they made me too tired to care (and one too hungry to care) and act on my creative impulses.
3. It's a very general concept, but problem solving. My current is ostensibly sales (of cell phones), but a lot of it is problem solving of customer issues from the stupidly simple to the ridiculously complex. I love that part of it and if I could have a big boy job with that kind of dynamic... I'd be in heaven!
