What do you guys do on your free time?

[hikaru13]

So I'm running out of things to spend my summer vacation, here I am rotting in bed again and it has been affecting my mental health lately. I want to know what you guys do on your free time like anything you would want to share, and ofcourse it's greatly appreciated!

I've been looking for free events in the area and checking them out. Got to do music bingo at a local bar and made an acquaintance. A stroll around a local park with some music helps me clear my head, weather permitting.

 

[black money boys]

i like to drink with my friends on discord calls and we listen to music in my free time

People-watching. Results may vary.

That honestly sounds like a good idea I haven't thought of that before

oooh what games do you play?

 

[WrathfulGloom32]

oooh what games do you play?

Any games that I get my hands on minus the souls-like, I don't really like most of 'em, usually single player , I played Expedition 33 close to it's release date which is probably my favourite game with my favourite protagonist , I want to play Sifu, I played a bit Blue Prince but didn't really get into it, I want to play Horizon Zero dawn and forbidden west. I mean I played a lot of games but right now I mentioned what I played in the last month or two, about 2-3 years ago I replayed a lot of PS2 games , Ratchet and Clank, Jak and Daxter, Crash Bandicoot , God of War. (as examples, i played a lot of games in my life)

Yeahhh that's quite a lot of games. Do you enjoy playing them??

Also I looked up Blue Prince and wow I like the designs of the game.

 

[wham311]

Sit in a fucking room being pissed. I walked 5 miles yesterday and my body is obliterated from it. Otherwise sit and work a couple hours a day

WHAT THE- I mean it's a valid crashout after walking for that long.

I like playing games on average, I don't really get angry at playing them, when I was little , I would play competitive online games and get angry but I think that's social conditioning and me having a shitty childhood and high temper, so I don't play 'em anymore or very rarely with one of my friends when we get the time to get together and talk. But I do check up on multiplayer games from time to time, I'm not really clueless about them, I just spend very minimal time in them.

I see and yes I get you on the competitive online game. I also get easily pissed off that's why I mostly spend my time playing single player games.

I went out hoping for heat stroke and to get lost and somehow die. Body is just raw now. At least I got good sleep

[bleeding_heart_show]

I stare at the ceiling waiting for the day to be over and post annoying things on the internet.

 

[FoxSauce]

Overthinking....work

Moslty keeping my mind busy is exhausting but helps me through the day. Plus if i dont. Ill feel like a parasite.

Tha ks for asking

 

[Bad Karma]

reading helps a lot getting lost in someone elses world when mine feels too heavy to hold.
i draw and write when i can and take long walks when the sun is out.
im lucky to live near the beach so when i feel like im sinking i try to get up without thinking and walk straight there and let the fresh air and cold water reset me a little.
when ive been rotting for too long i pick one tiny thing to clean or organize just to feel like i did something productive. usually once i start i can keep going slow and steady.
and when all else fails video games are always there quiet and familiar like an old friend.

 

[Actovania]

i listening to music, play video games and browse the internet thats the only thing i do in my free time

 

[GarageKarate07]

This/ these may not be for everyone. I keep busy for one. Even if its playing on media or games or tv/ videos. I go outside and do house cleaning or make food. I take my 2 puppies to the river but I have a river so theres that. We saw a herd of turkeys this last time. They ran like those dinosaurs from Jurassic Park as they went across the field. We saw baby frogs and a blue crane (a very large bird). I go for walks or go to the dog park or look for new places in my area that I haven't been to or haven't been to in a while. Mostly around water because nobody swims in winter. I got my puppy a life jacket and he swam pretty good at the lake after he realized he didnt have to work so hard and he wouldnt sink. I drink lots of coffee. I buy lots of food. I'm trying to think of cheap or free things in case someone has no money. Go to the dog park and just "borrow" a dog. Nobody cares imo. Just throw a ball and pet the dogs and talk to the people. Walk around a part of down that you haven't yet assuming its safe. Walk in the forest assuming its safe. We ( I, my puppies are kinda dumb) saw 2 jaguars in the forest who were stalking us on a early morning walk. Cougars maybe. Big ass cats thats for sure. Dont walk in the forest in the dark. We didn't get eaten but that was scary. Walk in the hills. Drive in the hills if you have a car. Go People watching at the parks or malls. Puzzles can be fun. Shoot guns if you get a chance. Blasting tin cans at the gun park is great. Pew Pew. Clean stuff at home? Just keep busy & try to keep your mind off your problems. Put new songs on your phone or delete old ones. Paint pictures or coloring books. Sew I guess? Paint a rock that's super easy to do! Spray paint planets and stars on paper or a piece of wood with circle objects like bottles or cans or old cups. Talk to strangers on Oberlo but that might not be in every country. Find free zoom groups there's a list somewhere on the sight to search through its awkward at first but you might find a fun group. Move your furniture around? Idk.... ❤

 

[nitritegirl]

It's really nice that you could still find comfort in some things. Especially going to the beach really helps a lot, I don't know why but the sound and smell gives that sense of comfort nothing could ever replace. Thanks for giving me inspiration to pick myself up and do something to help me.

oooooh how are you latelyy??

 

[33K1LLM3]

I watch movies, I collect them hardcore, even though I'm gradually stopping buying them. Watching movies especially horror and depressing movies gives me so much comfort, it's a piece of me that I find within each movie I watch.

You surely keep yourself engaged in any kind of activities. Wow it's pretty fun to be doing a lot of things. And yes, never walk in the woods at night. I'm glad tho that you enjoy what you do!

For me, I do find ways to spend my time like talking to my friends on discord, or read a book. I've also been into sewing lately, since I wanted to gift my friend a heart shaped patch. Thanks for sharing your experience, I really appreciate it!

I relate with this deeply!! Do you use letterboxd to log in the films you've watched? Bcs I do!
