Comments on Susan Linford’s post Drugs and creativity

That drug use can enhance creativity in any way is doubtful, For one thing I have tried drinking (scientifically speaking alcohol is a drug) and then tried writing something creative, unfortunately it was a hopeless task. It seemed fine at that time but in the morning when I looked at it I realised how a state of intoxication can never compete with a crystal clear sober mind. I have heard of an extremely few drug addicts, who have become creative writers. Infact drug use will I believe dim the creative mind and ultimately destroy the creative spirit. A drug addict usually has a weak body; a weak body usually always have a weak mind, which can not really be good in the art of creativity. Ofcourse there may be exceptions but…they are just exceptions.
