The problem with the way I draw is that I can only draw when I'm not in a bad mood. Considering the last forty five minutes, there won't be a comic this week.
Perhaps you need to draw as a reward for doing something else, even if it is just getting through a bad day. You need to remember that drawing represents part of your artistic/creative side and that doing it should bring you joy. As a writer, I have not been doing enough writing lately so I understand the problem. But when our creative work becomes something that we plan for it becomes something to look forward to. Those of us who follow Closetspace look forward to the infrequent updates. You could look forward to drawing it.
Time management issues are also something that I have a problem with. It sounds counter intuitive/productive to say that a time needs to be planned for artistic expression, but it need not be so. When our days and nights are too full of other things that we enjoy less than our creative work, it can be helpful to set aside time to do it. I function best with getting enough sleep, which does not happen often enough, since in the evening I often feel more awake and want to prolong 'my time' of the day. When I have too much work hanging over me, I deny myself the important time for self expression. it sometimes helps to re-evaluate how we spent our time, and to check our priorities.

Good luck!!
