Creativity suppression can be described as a decrease in both a person's motivation and capabilities when performing tasks that involve producing artistic output or creative problem-solving. This effect may be particularly frustrating to deal with for artists of any sort as it will induce a temporary creative block.
Creativity suppression is often accompanied by other coinciding effects such as thought deceleration, emotion suppression, and analysis suppression in a manner which further decreases the person's creative abilities. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of depressant compounds, such as antipsychotics[1] and GABAergic depressants. However, it can also occur during stimulant offsets and during the withdrawal symptoms of almost any compound.
