Easier said than done, or "My goodness, what an idea! Why didn't I think of that? Just create something."
Particularly with learning curve (and needing to assess things) while lacking creativity(/ideas), motivation, energy, good status etc.
That, and it's easy for things beyond your control to change things. Destroying your interest in said creating (even if you've made something complete), turn it into lurking (waiting for someone else to make certain changes), or requiring finding a different avenue for creation.
Yeah, I know. I have depression. That's what helped me after years of medication and therapy failed. It's not easy at all.
