It's interesting that one of the things that goes when I slip into depression is my creative urge, and if I can force myself to hang onto that I come through it better (my photo-a-day project a few years back helped me hang on through a bad bout of depression - if I achieved nothing else in a day I managed to take that photo!).
This time round the problem was extreme stress rather than depression, and the creative urge remained even when pretty much everything else had shut down. And I have to say that I'm glad of it, I hope that now that I'm back in the groove of writing it carries on :)
