Completion or Realising and Post Partum Depression

"I have taken this idea in my latest article about Creative Arts Education Landscape Of Commitment  and talked about how to deal with kids who want to get out of their commitments." and tried to illustrate the concept.  Previous posts Hopeful Realism  Informed Pessimism Informed Optimism

Believe it or not this is not always the stage that is the easiest for the true artist.  OSHO talks a lot about Post Partum Depression.  Similar to when a woman has a child the artist often finds that the have fallen "in love" with the creative project and it has become her baby.  So once it has finished all of that devotion needs to be transferred or the artist needs to find a way to wind down and bask rather than feel as though something is missing.

At this stage sometimes artists use drugs to try to regain a sense of normalacy.  So long as the artist or student knows and is aware of the liklihood of this feeling - they can pass through it safely.
