Hey folks,
I have been trying to find some new hobbies to keep my anxiety/depression at bay. It seems, however, that my mind is not creative enough to find interesting things to do. So, I come to you to ask: What are your hobbies? Why do you like them?
Here are the things I’ve tried:
- Going to the gym (This is more of a habit than a hobby nowadays)
- Gaming (I’ve been getting less and less out of it as I get older)
- Bouldering (It’s fun, but not without a group of friends)
- TTRPG (I can’t seem to find a steady group or one online, but otherwise, it’s very enjoyable)
- Learning a new instrument (I started playing the guitar and I love it)
- Philosophy (Is that a hobby? I enjoy reading and reflecting on it)
So, folks, what are your favorite pastimes?
Thanks :)
Honestly I have a lot. ADHD has me running in circles trying new things all the time lol.
Programming (until I turn it into a job). I’m just about to start on some small personal projects, and maybe some open source development. (Maybe contribute to lemmy?)
Voice Acting, though I haven’t done much in a couple years. Really need to get back on that, it was fun.
Gaming/TTRPG. My friend groups for this overlap and it’s a good time. I am (willingly) stuck in the forever DM position.
Watching TV Shows/Anime. Just anything that catches my interest, and I like to do some minor reviewing.
Reading. I’ll read pretty much any medium. Books, graphic novels, manga.
Learning Japanese. I’ve made some pretty good progress here, though I’ve fallen a bit behind in my flashcards.
