Have you heard about art and music therapy? How might art or music therapy help in a tough time?
I actually want to develop art therapy as my career, at the moment im really interested in using at a treatment for either people with degenerative disorders (parkinsons, alzheimers etc) or for kids with developmental disorders! Not sure how exactly yet but ill make it happen!!!

"But I think the most creative thing I have ever done is exploring each day as they come with my ever shifting moods, feelings and emotions and creatively expressing it through writing and art."
GREAT

Whats the most creative thing you have ever done? Or do regularly? Story time!
I once made a picture collage for my sister of all these baby photos of her! And it was really cool ... only problem i never asked mum if i could cut up the photos for it- she was not happy. But luckily it was good ( yup thats right it was good) so it wasnt too bad.
Given everything you guys have said i am creative... i do flower arranging, lots of baking, is assignment writing creativie? because sometimes i reckon the tasks they set us are creative haha. I also have pretty ok problem solving skills

So much creativeness in needed for that! Glad that you changed your mind and consider yourself as creative.

NOT CREATIVE in a conventional sense. I cant draw, play music, dance do any of that! My best friend can draw and design so i have always been the noncreative one. However i just realised im comparing myself to a PHD industrial design student that topped her honours year... so yeh im NOT creative compared to her! But surely im more creative than some.... right?

Great responses guys...
Here is a tricky one - try and think about this given what we have all said 🙂

Yes absolutely.
I tend to bake a lot (and im pretty good) so I am constantly coming up with new cupcake topping designs and ideas.
I also write a lot of poetry when the mood strikes me (which I have been told is pretty good,but its just me putting emotion onto paper without editing).
I am also a Uni student living in a tiny campus room, just fitting stuff in the room without letting it look a mess is creativity at its finest.

OMG...I love baking too! I always get so much joy of making fancy desserts and watching people eat and enjoy them. Oh and yes, I agree...organisation is creative.

I really enjoy baking too, @_sagira_ and @Maddi_1995 :). I really love decorating cakes and cupcakes especially - I think I enjoy the decorating more than the baking and eating! I love come up with colour schemes and themes.- Mark as New

Hmm that is a hard one! I think the most creative thing I've ever done is playing lots of different instruments when I was at school - during high school I played piano, bass clarinet, clarinet, drums, baritone saxophone and did vocal lessons at different times, which I think is quite creative. I don't seem to get as much time for creative pursuits now that I've finished school, life seems to take over all the time! I do draw daily though and try to paint and play piano when I can.

I used to always come up with ice-cream flavours that I could make, but stopped when I had a major fall out with my group of friends. I should probably start that creative process again!
I used to imagine train track designs for my nephews and then build them. Just watching their faces light up with delight was the best reward ever. :')

I sure did make them @EloiseRose! The only problem would be making them in mass production. Would it be worth it (money wise)? Would it still taste the same? So many questions that need asking and answering. But I don't think I love ice-cream enough to work for an ice-cream company.

I used to be very good at painting when I was younger. I would spend as much time as I could at the school art room drawing and painting peices of art because I couldn't at home, wasn't allowed. But once my Dad found out I was made to feel pretty ashamed about it and had any of my art destroyed. So I haven't gone down that path in 3 or 4 years...

@j95 Im so sorry to hear that, sounds pretty tough. But i encourage you to try and keep it up if there is somewhere safe you can do this, its a great way to express yourself and gain insight. Perhaps these experiences will inform your future work?
