Let's address the elephant in the room. 

I haven't been writing a lot lately. I've noticed a lot about myself lately.

Since I got on my depression pills in January 2017, I've noticed the fact that I can't feel or express my feelings through writing  as good as I used to while depressed. While I was in my depressive state, I could write expressive beautiful chapters that made my readers feel something. But now when I write, I feel, nothing. My mind feels numb. My emotions are non-existent in this fictional world that used to be my home for creative words. 

So, based on this information, I want to conduct an experiment. 

I want to stop taking my medicine for a week. Then I want my emotions to start flowing raw again. I want to know if it will effect my writing any differently. Now, I know this can mess up my chemical balance a lot but I feel so numb on this. I just want to feel human again.
