What's a Hobby That Helps You Cope?

Singing, journaling, painting

Cuddling with my dogs. 🖤

Learning piano, drawing, reading, yoga, golf and tennis ☺️

Yoga! Yes, I forgot to mention that. Helps me so much. I enjoy it.

Yoga and reading, also playing with my cats 💕

Audible books for me as I’m having a hard time reading right now. I love to read so this is the next best thing especially when my pain level is getting high.

I'm a gamer but I also really like model kits. I adore toys and learning about all different ways to manufacture things. I guess I'm a general 'maker' in that sense.

I raise ducks and quail. The ducks keep me very entertained! They are so goofy 😜

I like to read and write poems and short stories. It can be isolating and overwhelming writing about my health issues. Sometimes I process things better when I write out those issues in stories where I don’t directly address myself. I also love to paint and draw. These hobbies help me to focus on being happy without pushing myself. I hope this helps !

I use polymer clay to sculpt little animals. I use it as a safe outlet to disassociate a but while a movie is playing

I try to learn as much random stuff as I can. I watch sci show and PBS on YouTube and follow a lot of knowledgeable people on social media. I think it's fun a distracting to learn fun facts.
