So i still have depression and im constantly bored, i feel like a loser who cant do anything right. I want to let my creativeness out, make something i can share with the world or family, but im probably dreaming too big. I cant stand being depressed and bored, it stinks, everyone tells me to work out but i lack the motivation to do so.

i usually just watch youtube all day while complaining to family members that have no idea what to do about me.

    Making food, either baking or cooking. They focus you on the here and now and you eat well to boot.

    A hobby that has helped me a lot is knitting. It’s simple to learn and it’s another truly mindful thing to do for you.
