What hobbies would you recommend that are fibro friendly, especially pain and brain fog? I want to start having fun again! I really like embroidery and reading, but both have become tricky, reading especially so.

    I'm not a reader, I like crafts that are quick, although my favorite is wood crafting, like woodburning or woodcarving.

      any word puzzles you recommend? I really like that idea! Baking and reading are sadly pretty hard

        any world puzzle I do the easy ones also normal puzzles they keep your mind working I would do a 25 piece. My mom used to do 10,000 pieces puzzles to cope with hers.

    I'm listening to an audiobook rn. Mobile puzzle and word searches and even match 3 games are great for the fog

    I have been sewing for decades. I find I can do many of the steps of making a quilt while sitting in my recliner.

      that’s a great idea, I love seeing but never really thought about how I can do a lot of it in bed!

        I mave a lap desk with a cutting mat on it. I keep all of my notions within reach. I pin everything in batches so I don't actually spend very much time at my machine.

    Maybe an instrument? I play guitar and ukulele, although sometimes the chords are tough on my fibromyalgia, I still like it!
