Everyone on steemit has encountered this challenge, some are still encountering it. It can really be sad like you said; especially when you felt blank in your brain and notwithstanding, you still managed to put up an article that's nice and start feeling all proud of yourself on how well you can still bring out something tangible from a brain that was initially feeling blank and at the end of everything, all you get is no upvote or very low upvotes. You can't just help but feel sad. #storyofmylife
