All the time, I just draw it anyway. The way I see it, writing a comic is a job (albeit one you might not necessarily get paid for) and you don't get to not do your job just because you don't feel like doing it.
Eeyup, had that the last few days without noticing it. I plotted on my story in written form but something was missing somehow >.<
So yesterday my best friend practically forced a sketchbook and a pencil into my hands and told me: "DRAW! NOW!"
...after sketching some stuff I feel better =) Sometimes you need a gentle nudge from someone who cares about you.
Unfortunately she's not for sale or rent ;_; Otherwise I'd send her to you, armed with sketchbook and pencil as well =)
Yes. It affects almost all my projects. Sometimes I just want to throw it all away and do something completely different. Something that I've never done before.
I'm there right now. Sometimes I just need to put them away for a while.
At this point I usually do some writing or start drawing something else.
Now I'm having a "break" by drawing a story written by somebody else for the very first time. It is a good challenge to visualize another persons fantasy. Make both the writer and myself shine through.
I've also wanted to try a slightly different approach for a while. Most of my stories are rooted in relatively abstract science fiction mostly suited for adults. For the last few weeks I have been thinking about making a weird science fiction comic/picture book for children. The kind of book I wanted to read way back when I was a little kid.
I don't know if this is a good idea, but at least it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. And it distracts me until I get ready to work on my other projects again.
I feel what helps people is reminding themselves why they started in the first place--their passion. But at the same time, you don't want it to feel forced.
Me Personally, I can't say I have for drawing, but other areas yes.
.
I've gotten into a warrior mindset. To be willing to die for the passion. I got rid of habits, friends that hindered my personal devlopment into accomplishing my goals.
Since I was 5 or 6, I had nothing else but my vision of Osca . And various other forms of storytelling from other authors. If it wasn't for this I wouldn't be motivated for life, personal development, knowledge. & I'd probably be in prison, or depressed.
This is highly therapeutic for me and I enjoy helping others see drawing as therapeutic; hence, I make Youtube Videos specifically to help mentally and emotionally struggling artists. 
It sounds like a good idea, it would be really cool if you kept me posted on whether or not you're doing it, and if you are, maybe keep me up to date with stuff? I dunno, I get a bit too hyped up for things than what might be considered healthy!
Whenever I get to a dull section of the story which isn't bad when you're just reading, but is boring as hell to draw, I feel lazy. I feel there's hope how for me to ever get to the good parts im actually excited to draw. Plus I don't have many readers.
What makes me feel better is the fact that I really love my characters and the story as a whole and after a short break I get back at it.
Thanks to everyone posting here!!! I have gained the motivation to draw the next page of my comic!!! Thank you all so much!!! I hope anyone suffering an art block (as I still am) will get over it soon!!!
It definitely happens and it's probably a pretty common reality. Even if I do enjoy drawing and making stories, but it doesn't mean all the work will be enjoyable. In that case you got to think of your end goal and power through it. Sometimes, it happens because constantly working on the same project isn't always as simulating as doing something new. In that case, do something different for fun. Other times, self doubt and crippling artist insecurities happen. Is it any good? Does anyone actually like it? etc. In that case, remember that your job is simply doing the best you can right now.
So conclusion, some tips on what helps me:
1)
Set a certain amount of hours (ex. 3 hours) to work on your comic each day. If you feel like drawing more one day, great, but if not, you still have x amount of hours done. Plus, you won't feel the weight of doing x amount of work by the update time when you can focus on a time goal each day. Does that make sense?
2) If you feel like drawing something else, go for it. As long as you remember to go back to your comic, it's good to stretch your wings.
3)Remember why you decided to make your comic in the first place. Why is it important that you make this comic? Even if it seems only important to yourself, that's just as a valid reason as anything else (like world domination lol)
On a personal note, tip 3 is the one I have the most trouble with since the content of my comic, Halfsoul can be quite dark and depressing at times. So instead of worrying whether or not people are enjoying the comic or not, remembering that I'm writing this story because I want to think (and others to think) about what it means to lose a part of yourself and what recovery can mean, helps.
This is the main thing that slows me down when it comes to my comic. Most of the time, when I have to start a fresh page, it's hard to find the motivation to get past the beginning phases (thumb nailing, light sketching, figuring out the angles, and sometimes, even the fine sketching). And sometimes, I won't want to draw if I only have an hour in a day to work on it or something (like if I need some more time to get into a groove). Finally, sometimes, I just need to take a break and do other things, or even make an unrelated piece of art to feel fresh about taking on a new page.
Oh yes. The thing is, I know I've improved in the two years I've worked on Life of an Aspie on and off. Far more than I ever did with random drawings prior to that, but of course, beating myself up about it does me far more harm than good which is why I have to keep telling myself to not bother with the art quality and just have fun with what I do. (at least until I can realistically afford to start paying someone far better than me to draw my comic for me leaving me to just handle the writing which I'm better at anyhow.)
Stuff that is personally helpful for me is to include something I would like drawing on every page or some interesting challenges to keep the process fresh!
For example different camera angles or perspective shots.
I also practice things I know will be hard for me beforehand. So that I will both be comfortable with drawing these things and also have references already prepared.
Breaks are your friend! Also if you lose some of that hype try to find a friend and talk with them about what makes you love your comic so much C: this always lights some of my fuel again.
Alot. Simply reason ; when I haven't got any idea's. It's why I decided to update once within 2 weeks. Then I got plenty of time of crack my brain for anything that comes to mind.
Heck yeah I lose my fire sometimes!
@indagold @Jessisheron and @AmysGames all had great advice that I follow myself. I did one other thing, too, that I found really helped me a lot.
Basically, I've had the imagery and basic idea for this one comic rattling around in my mind, and growing, since I was about 16 or so, which is 20 years now. I've worked on it on and off that entire time but never gone very far with it. Then I got the idea to get one of my frequent collaborators involved. He's a very dear friend and colleague, and an awesome writer. He loves comics more than almost anything in the world, and one of his only wishes is to work on them throughout his life.
Once I got this man involved in my story, I finally got more serious about it, for two reasons: 1) involving another human meant I had to establish deadlines and a pace, so he can work on it too once I'm done with my bit, and then we work on it in time to have that part done after that. 2) Now that his hopes and dreams are on the line too, I can't let him down! I think he's the best, and I don't won't to disappoint him specifically.
So the above awesome advice you've received (Big buffer for break times, play stuff in background, make sure to at least get a line down on the page and name it), plus involving a peer you really care about, is what pulls me out of it.
Always lol. But it comes back later (maybe months later lol) And I also draw in "advance" one weekend I have inspiration so I draw for all the motnh...(meaning 04 pages lol. 04 months later another upload...)Mmmmm... Maybe I am not the best person for this type of advice XD
Sometimes just forcing myself to work on it for small increments like ten minutes. If i tell myself just ten minutes its easier to get through. Usually i end up working longer as i start to figure out what to do.
Occasionally yeah. When I had exams on I couldn't update regularly... I had to skip a couple of updates because I was far too stressed.
Especially when I had 5 art exams that were all 3 hours long. once I had a whole day exam (two 3 hour sessions) so I had spent 6 hours painting with acrylic.
I came home, looked at my tablet, observed my tired wrist and said "hell no".
Once I had a really bad slump because an acquaintance of mine was murdered. (yeah for real) This was before I even wrote the script to my current comic, but I was so anxious and upset I didn't write anything at all for over a month. I couldn't expand on any ideas I came up with and drawing was hard.
Other than that, though... I personally love my story and characters so much that I even occasionally post new pages inbetween my update schedule. I'm quite motivated I guess.
I get anything to distract me (let all the story ideas stew in my head) until I get a giant craving to draw it, that or just force myself since not all pages need to be the most perfect page ever
just don't worry and do what you feel like 
also just draw something else for a while that way you get a bit of a breather

Yeah, I used to be hopeless. It was a very hard and blue year, I didn't know what to do. Before that, I fell in love unrequited. And it was awful. Fortunately, I'm back in the channel thanks to these nootropics https://nootropicboost.com/2 Perhaps it has more placebo effect, but I don't care. It helped
