Dr. Michael Savage disagrees. He says the creativity actually comes from not indulging oneself in obsessive or nonproductive role playing.

Reminds me of a Nietzsche line: semen reabsorbed into the blood is the fuel for creativity. In other words, guys who aren’t gettin’ any tend to channel their frustration into making things.
These neurotics may just be suffering from lack of sex .

Maybe it’s being creative that makes one neurotic, or makes one appear neurotic.

Well, I always thought that George Costanza was the most creative of the Seinfeld gang. His excuses as to why he wasn’t working, returning phone calls, etc. were real gems.

I don’t think creativity and neurosis necessarily go hand in hand, but when a neurotic is creative, the products are more annoying than entertaining. Allen’s movies were always very annoying to me. Ditto for van Gogh. He may have been a “brilliant” artist, but his work is not pleasant to look at.

According to Dr. Perkings, neuroticism can be associated with a highly active imagination, and this overactive imagination may act "as a built-in threat generator".
I think a highly active imagination can lead to a better sense of humor, since the visual conjured up when someone like this hears a joke is the thing that makes him laugh.

Van Gogh was manic-depressive.
