like what are the best methods to get the brain active to create something, most of the things i want to require an idea but the truth is i have nothing and im not sure how to get an idea or if its even possible for me due to my autism or how my brain works.

maybe im just being hard on myself i use to come up with so many ideas but theses days i have nothing or just half a mess that i cant seem to finish cleaning, if that makes sense.

is there a suggestion, tip, method, or something that can get my brain started. if your wondering what im trying to do i would like to make a short comic i feel if doing so i might learn something or it would be interesting. i heard sticky notes are good but i dont want a room full of sticky notes, that just dosent seem right?

    All of these non-marijuana suggestions are good, but I’d like to suggest marijuana.

      I’m kind of surprised anyone else does this, but I’ve come up with some of my better ideas while stoned (my focus is on artificial intelligence and navigating the complexity of true self-learning, so there’s a lot to keep track of all at once). What I’ve found is that when you are under the influence, it helps you get away from all the walls thrown up by your own mind that prevent creativity. The real trick is keeping your focus on those ideas long enough to write them down in a way that you can pick it up again later – that does take some practice but if the dosage is small enough then logical thinking is still possible.

      In the end, this is just another method of distracting the mind so you’re not thinking about something so hard that to prevent yourself from finding those new ideas. There are of course other ways to do this, it’s just something that works well for me.
