it's my default state. i agree with corpsey in that i also tend to look for an emotional spark--a wakeup call to return to the world of agency and finite time. (agency bc you don't really do anything noticeable while you're in the pit, and finite time bc you become sort of oblivious to its passage in this state.)
personally, i've found that the spark isn't always something positive. sometimes what should be heartening can cause you to sink deeper, and what should be disheartening can jolt you out. seeing people you like flourishing can inspire you, but if you're really stuck it can make things worse because you feel like you're falling out of their orbit, or, more depressingly, were never really in it to begin with. by contrast, seeing someone really fuck up, or seeing people you don't like doing the things that you should be doing, sometimes can actually be what you need to get in motion.
tbh that last point is the main appeal of Resident Advisor Brooklyn & Berlin, NTS London, etc. for me. i'll see some rich kids getting interviewed about their latest music and think "if even they put in the work to make something, surely i can, too?" it's an embarrassingly petty spark generation method but it works pretty consistently when i remember it, lol.
