It can be explained as followed:
The driving compulsion and overwhelming urge to write/create.The opposite of writer's block.Described as a temporal lobe epilepsy.Also known as the midnight disease.
From what I have read and can understand,
many artists in history were affected by it
and it's opposite effect:
hypographia, aka the writer's block.
Sylvia Plath. Stephen King. Vincent Van Gogh.
Byron. Dante. Molière. Edgar Allen Poe.
People filling page after page of writing, doodling, music.
Unable to slow down their minds.
Not wanting to forget a thing.
Is it a gift or a curse?
To a perfectionist like me,
it could feel like a curse.
The feeling of writing nothing but nonsense.
Thinking it's worthless.
...
Ok, maybe I don't have Hypergraphia
But I'm still addicted to notebooks!
I can't leave home without one.
There's one my bedside table,
One on my desk...
Dozens of pens... EVERYWHERE!
>_<;
Then again, it's better to be inspired...
than to be left empty.
