Hey Pandas, What Hobby Helped You Out Of A Difficult Situation?
What activities or hobbies helped you deal with tough things going on in your life. For me it was netball (non-competitive), it helped me have people to escape to who didn't know anything about me and I could forget about anything else.

Watching movies. I don't know if it happens with someone else, but during the duration of the movie, I'm literally transported to another world and helps me forget about my current situation.
After it ends, helps me face my current situation in a much better way.

Woodworking and football(soccer). It has always helped tremendously. Just an avenue to build something, even if it's not good, but just by myself with my tools cutting, hammering, drilling...it helps. Soccer helps a whole lot to by just running it off.

Poetry helped me when I was at my lowest point in life. It may have not helped a lot but I became really good. And sometimes it made me feel better. Express how I felt through it explain it like no one else could to me. And let other people be amazed at my art.
It helped me through some of my worst times. And reading helped a lot. Like a whole lot more. I could just escape into the world the book is at and I'm there. Kinda like dreams.

Ukulele. It gives you a hobby that keeps you doing something and being sane during a hard time. As long as I am doing something useful, I can't be depressed

Drawing things I wish. Multiple times in my life, I have been very self conscious about how others think about me. I used to draw what I wished I looked like, which probably wasn’t the best, but it helped all the same.

Uhhh I guess I could say playing video games but now nothing I do has effect about my severe anxiety and fear so idk anymore when I was younger video games helped but like I said nothing else with probably never help. I just hope to get better someday but now I feel like God is doing nothing to help me I feel like he is just watching me and saying to me “fix your own damn problem”.
