Also, the 'have to suffer to create great art' "myth" that you speak of, well, I find it true. Please don't call things a 'myth' just because they are not true for your process. If you can create TRUE and interesting stuff out of thin air or research, God bless ya. Unfortunately for me, the best work I create comes from real pain. The reason it's my best stuff is because it has an edge, a need, a feeling, an immediacy, and a personal relevance. I've got skin in the game - no bullshit. And because I feel the pain, I can't fucking stop until this pain is removed from my body - which happens through the creation of the art. And because I lived the pain, the work is usually very specific and genuine. Wish it wasn't like this, but it is what it is.
Then all I can say is, be careful. I think this is a tender trap, because some will embrace the pain in order to remain creative. I went down that path and I've seen a lot of artists do the same. They're afraid to be happy because they feel like they may become less interesting.
Best of luck to you
