I love the coloring books for adults that are all over recently, really takes my mind of things. And keeping a diary... Sounds terrible but it helps me clear my head before going to sleep. Just a few words or lines are enough.

    Sports. Running in the woods, running with the kids in a carrier, cycling, mountain biking, swimming. Results in an exhausted body but leads to a fresh mind.

    Reading fiction books, whenever I can. It gives me rest from the routine and existential dread.

    I teach painting and decorating to adults from all back grounds. I find a sense of humor and wit helps a lot. Especially people who suffer from depression.

    Stay focused on what I can do to help while being willing to allow others to help me when I need it as we all do these days.

    Many of you probably know, but I love writing poems and daydreaming and making up stories to keep me positive. I also take a little me time and I also pray. It helps. I'm Catholic by the way.

    I have several notebooks - one is a diary, one is "random facts", one is prayers (i'm lutheran), 1 is drawings/doodles, and 2 or 3 are just notes.

    As much as I hate cleaning, that's what I do. If my home is clean, my mind is also.

    I joined discord - there are lots of great people and servers so I've been pretty occupied. Also, can't forget about books.
