Oof, I really resonate with this. It’s interesting, though, because in my experience, I think writing began as both a curiosity and a coping mechanism for me. Being able to write from a place that isn’t pain has taken a lot more effort to develop than writing as an emergency response. But I think you’re right to point out that mental health is indeed a good thing for creatives to focus on, as well.
