Things have been tough lately!!! I started getting out more/doing things to distract myself purely to keep myself afloat while I sorted things out & made all the changes that I need, and in the process I accidentally rediscovered the joys of having Hobbies??? Ive FINALLY started getting properly into Magic the Gathering, and its been my in to finally making decent irl friends in my new hometown!!! Im far from thriving, but its been good. Do things you like!!!! Pictured: my new capy plushies protecting my Standard deck :3

I took up stained glass as a hobby a few years ago.
You know those shows where people move off the grid and they have so much pride for the way they live, even though they have to shovel thru 6ft of rocks and dirt every time they want to take a shower?
The closest I have gotten to that feeling is making things with my hands. it started at knitting, then shrinky dink keychains, then cricuting tote bags and t shirts, then collaging, and most recently making stained glass.
I love having Bloody battled lil finger pads and holding something sharp and real up to the window that exists in space and time because I FORGED IT!
In reality, I am making silly little suncatchers for my friends that Aren't all rock and roll, but it makes me feel powerful and good.
Can recommend stained glass but also any hobby where you create something fun and cute for Sport

Moving my body (in any way):
This shit is awesome, after my surgery i was not allowed to move physically too much and it made me so miserable.
Educating myself instead of brainrotting:
Even though I still listen to each and every emergency intercom episode, I love nourishing my brain with random and interesting knowledge through watching documentaries or reading books. Most recent one being history about the black plague (yes the tiktok POVs made me dive deeper into it), different art styles used for shows, neuroscience and cinematography compostion and why we enjoy them.
My dear minoltax700:
love love love rrrrrrgurrr
Sad Folk music & arabic shoegaze:

Ballroom videos:

Taking new routes:
Stirring up the day by taking new paths and routes why tf nott (not dangerous ones tho)
Sylvanian bunnies:
Everytime my friend comes over I mention the bunnies and she get's so upset which I think is hilarious. Have loved and wanted them since a little child and saw them resurfacing again.
Finding creators I enjoy watching:
Lyas, emmaxwinder, sarahbahbah, Rue Yi, Orion carloto
Eye contact mid conversation:
Im terrible at this and I feel uncanny doing it, but I've realized how much the eyes say about the person standing infront me.

Honestly just find some kind of activity where you can regularly feel accomplished. For me that's climbing bc you get to achieve sth each session (new routes! new grades!) or drawing as I 'achieve' sth each time I finish a drawing.
Alongside that, make sure you shower and clean your spaces regularly + dressing up every now and again! Just making sure you keep feeling and treating urself as a real human
