If stuff is really going on in your head, but for some reason you feel like you are drowning when you lift your pen, maybe that's You telling you that you are in a receptive part of the cycle, and what you "should" be doing is receiving, soaking it all in, and it is just not time to write yet.

Key word - "maybe" - I don't pretend to know, obviously.

Receive well, create well, I hope your night is everything.

Every time everything seems to be getting decent, or at least 'normal', fate finds a way to slap us down.
