[Chockles]

I'm so physically disabled & in agony I can no longer do hobbies. I'm online briefly & 21hrs a day I stare At the walls crying as have severe nerve damage wishing I could end things 2-3hrs sleep a night max. Used to enjoy guirar & drawing before things got really bad.

Reading. I read as much as I can. Currently halfway through the bible. Sometimes I get bored and go on SS or instagram. I also have a poetry account on instagram (@maybe.i.should.just.end.it) where I share my feelings.

[OnlyTheWind]

Clean my room / get rid of stuff. Mostly just sitting around wasting time on the internet. Either that or go for a walk.

Used to be music, but it's been painful right now trying to sing with jaw/tooth pain, so that's on hold. Drawing, but that's on hold, because of reasons.. Action figure collectible photography, which I haven't don't lately. So, lately, jigsaw puzzles. There's a website where you can do them online. They have various images there you can do, or you can even upload your own images.

workaholism

I kinda envy that. If I could do that, I might be able to sorta fix myself. Or, at least make my situation acceptable. Oh well.

Hope you get a break sometimes x

 

[FuneralCry]

I do not do a lot. Hobbies require interest, motivation and concentration which are things that I struggle with. I do not enjoy anything but I do things like watch TV shows to pass the time until I fall asleep and to try and distract myself from my thoughts. I used to quite like music, but every time I listen to it, it just makes my tinnitus worse. My days are long and depressing and I simply do not like living. I try to sleep as much as possible. One thing that does make me feel a bit better is being out in nature. The thing that I want the most is non existence.

 

[BeansOfRequirement]

The only hobbies I'm able to do without effort are lifting, browsing SaSu and chain smoking. I can get myself to watch stupid shit and play video games with a small amount of effort. Medium-hard is reading and cardio.

 

[hʚll]

workaholism

True dat

 

[Seafoam]

Weed, anime/manga, work, school, reading posts here, and running

 

[Deleted member 8579]

Playing the piano is a magnificent time sink.

 

[ithappens]

Watch The Office on repeat and smoke a bunch of weed mostly. Also, cleaning can be pretty mindless.

 

[user_name_here]

movies, games and work

 

[DutchDude26]

Multiple things but when i am at my lowest i drive to the country side in my (reasonably fast) Honda, find some twisty mostly abandoned roads, put on some aggresive or upbeat music and drive like there's no tomorrow. Try to forget all the regrets and negative feelings and just focus on the road, shifting the gears, revving the engine and pushing the car to its limits. The thrill and danger of it makes me feel.. alive. After like 40 min mostly (sometimes longer sometimes sooner) I feel calmer. Some sort of chemical relieve. I then check where i am on Google maps, put On some podcast or Chil music and cruise down home on cruise control.

Eating food and throwing it up. It's very time-consuming, and the eating part is such a dopamine rush for me. I also listen to podcasts and music, watch true crime videos and movies, and bum around alone or with a friend. Sleeping for long hours and taking frequent naps is also a good distraction I partake in.

That sounds so rough :(

Hope you're okay, maybe doing a little better today x

 

[Myono93]

Alcohol and listening to music

 

[Akerblad]

watching anime, read manga, play videogames and drawing, but i stopped almost anything, ocassionally i still play videogames but is not much time, i can't engage any activity more than 30 or 45 minutes cause more than this time the only thing that i want to do is stop and feel like a plant in my bed

 

[lobster salad]

Cycling very fast and recklessly, music, getting drunk, texting my great friends, playing mine craft that's about it

 

[irememberinnocence]

I like going for short walks, I like reading about what's happening in different countries, I like putting stuff into online shopping carts even if I don't buy it. That's just some of many distractions I use.

 

[SentientCreature]

I like to read pessimistic literature but if I feel too exhausted(which is true most of the time) I listen to pessimistic youtubers that remind me that there is no place for culpability in this deterministic world where not having the right kind of genetic/social capital guarantees failure.

Thus freed from responsibility and regrets I go and either play video games or learn physics just so I can apply the math somewhere since university was otherwise a huge waste of time.

 

[Maravillosa]

Reading, writing, daydreaming of posthumous fame...

 

[irememberinnocence]

daydreaming of posthumous fame...

Haha same I dream of becoming posthumously famous. I'm too dysfunctional to pull it off in life.

Do you also write? How do you intend to be posthumously famous?
