I'm jealous of everyone in this thread who was ever able to be consistently creative either on or off meds. I'm bipolar when I was on meds I was unable to be creative a lot of the time, and now that I'm off the meds, I'm still unable to be creative a lot of the time. I have literally no control over my ability to draw or get things done, the urge just comes and goes. Just about the only time I seemed to be able to be consistently creative is when I was on Adderall, but that was back in college when I was misdiagnosed with ADHD by the campus psychiatrist and the Adderall made me horribly manic, so I'm pretty sure I can't go back on it.

I wish I could find another hobby or something else to do that would make me happy but I've been drawing pretty much my whole life so I don't know what else to do now

We are one and the same. I'm bipolar as well, and the creative urge just comes and goes. When I'm off my meds, I get huge spurts of creativity when the mania first takes hold that just die as I sink into a depression and then never come back. And I can't get myself to think properly a good deal of the time when I am medicated, so the creativity just isn't there, and the blank pages mock me. I've been drawing all my life too, and yet I've barely been able to get so much as a sketch done nowadays. It sucks.

THIS. Meds for the Bipolar Disorder absolutely kill my creativity, but being off meds isn't much better. Although I did eventually figure out that there is a brief window of hypermania where I can actually get something done.

Git while the gittin' is good, I suppose.

Advice for OP? Listen to your doctor. It's a terrible thing to have to be dependent on a drug. As you learn to manage ADHD without medicine, you may learn to channel your creativity as well.
