When is your favorite time of day to create?

Three weeks for Dreamwidth: When is your favorite time of day to create?

The evening, always. There is something about the evening and the night that calms me, relaxes me, and puts me in a mood in which I can create more easily. In some way, I sometimes find daytime to be stressful, even when I have days where I’m at home and don’t really have tasks/responsibilities.

I remember when I was in college, we had our most important art project at the end of the final year. I was in a rough situation at home with my parents, and the days felt as though they were constantly full of stress. I couldn’t work. I knew I had to complete the project, and felt that everything became more relaxed in the evening, so I decided to change things up and work at night (from 7 pm to 7 am) each day (we had some time off from lessons to complete the project). Then I went to sleep and woke up in the afternoon. I took care of some things and got ready to start again at 7. It was a crazy routine, but it worked. I was relaxed and completed the project. I passed. Fun fact: I often listened to Edith Piaf’s music while working on that particular project. It somehow fit with my mood at that time.

Thank you, it's hard to get help from doctors unless you push and push, I have found.

Yes, they like a named condition don't they, not a vague bunch of symptoms. Thanks 😊
