Rather I believe it is the lack of inspiration that you may be experiancing at a given time. For every person and every situation, inspiration is different. For me for instance, I suffer from depression, however that pain inspires me to write. I actually experiance more writers block when I'm not depressed than when depressed. The writing in turn is a cure almost for my depression. Its something of a balance I have found for myself. In the work environment I am asked to motivate our team. I can experiance a creative block when my team is unresponsive, I am no longer inspired when my team doesn't care. But when I hit upon something the team can get into, well then the ideas flow, I am inspired. For me the cure to writers block, find what inspires us, search it out and grab onto it! Use whatever it is your pain, or your joy. Your peers or your independance. Don't let anyone sway you from it either. I get told quite often, well your writing is depressing. Why don't you write something happy? I will write something happy. The day that I am inspired to. Writers block is really just trying to force out something that doesn't want to be writen. Atleast not right now. I believe writers block is real, however I would argue with someone who tried to blame a specific mental state such as depression to be the cause of it.

I live in a state of constant writers block. Its only when I wrestle myself down to write a few sentences that the floodgates open. The first steps are always the hardest.
