INABILITY(7) Miscellaneous Information Manual INABILITY(7) NAME Inability – losing the ability to create DESCRIPTION For often weeks, sometimes months at a time, I lose the ability to write new code. I can still make fixes and little cleanups in my existing projects, but if I try to work on something new, nothing happens. I can't get anything done. I think it's now been over 3 months since I've created anything. I don't know what to do about it. In the past I've eventually regained the ability to code, but it's unclear to me how or why. I also don't know what I should be doing instead. Writing code is the only hobby I've ever really developed, so without it I basically don't do anything. Does this happen to anyone else? How do you cope? AUTHORS june@causal.agency Causal Agency November 26, 2020 Causal Agency
