Makes you wonder what other "scientific truths" are just urban legends. <br />As to mental states of creative types: The average person comes home from work, eats dinner, spends some time with the kids, and watches a little TV. Creative types have to work on the latest work-in-progress: Twilight meets Stranger Things on a submarine.

Maybe for some. As someone who can relate to this, I'd say artistic people are generally very empathetic, sensitive, and introverted. We live inside our minds and tend to overthink things. We also feel much more than others. Believe it or not, I can walk into a room and feel negative energy. It affects me deeply. Maybe there's just something about the wiring of our brains that's a little different.

Maybe they are the ones who stand out as the ones who succeed, but at a great personal toll.<br /><br />It's important to remember that even the best of us have had critics. And self-doubt. But they never quit, they kept learning and working.
