I play golf and I am at a golf club, I’ve been skiing since I was 4 years old, I follow football and used to play, I used to make music on the computer too, I am also a keen follower of trance/EDM music and listen regularly. I like to gamble (is that a hobby lol?) and I am also interested in physics and meteorology…I’ve been interested in the weather since I could read and write and have had countless weather stations over the years, I have one currently up on the roof of my house and on my boat at the moment, I also studied Meteorology at university. I enjoy socialising however I have a non-existent social circle…I like watching occasional TV programmes, usually under an hour or so as I cant concentrate long enough to enjoy movies. So yeah I have a few but that being said I don’t have a job, I don’t drive, I have no friends, and of course I’m suffering from negative symptoms of schizophrenia, taking all that into account id say I’m pretty active hobby wise.
i lost interest in my old hobbies: arts, philosophy, books etc. and I lost interest in all things that used to excite me. now I only smoke & drink some coffee & lay down waiting to die. I have no hope, no expectations etc. I used to be a good poet, and I used to play many musical instruments, now i don’t touch my pen nor the instruments… what I keep on doing is meditation. the only thing that I used to do before & do it still now.
I make bead animals. It’s super fun when I can get the cats to stop attacking the string lol.
I also play video games a lot, and study language on the internet.
I play mmorpg games. I feel it fills that void of feeling like you’re doing something productive and challenging. It can be quite rewarding and takes up a lot of time too. Unfortunately in looking for a new game to play as my current is on it’s death bed
there’s one that looks interesting but it’s not set to launch until December. I’m not really sure what I’m going to do in the meantime
Music,tea,cigarettes, 
This is so, so very sad to hear. I hope you get better. It does get better. Don’t give up hope. There IS light at the end of the tunnel. No one was more hopeless than me. I came out of my hopeless abyss. If I could, everyone can. I will be thinking of you.
That is really sad to read Om _Sadasiva.
I hope you will enjoy doing things again and get passion and happiness.
I do not play instruments.
Can you write music?
Maybe you will get in to your hobbies again soon.
Do you do yoga aswell ?
Do you spend time in nature?
That can be very healing.
Winter dip followed by sauna.
Or just a dip.
Water is so healing I think.
My x and best friend I had used to take me for dip and it would make us feel better.
Anyone who can drag you out and get you up to some good mischief even if it’s just taking a dip to clear head and feel better and maybe even feel good and happiness or better than before anyway.
I used to make slippers.
I am making a blancet now.
It’s taken me one and a half years so far.
My neigher is one of. Eat things to ever happen to me and horse riding is a hobby I have I guess.
There could be other things too.
I seem to like baking.
(Best things to happen to me…)
Reading
Writing in Journal
Puzzles like crosswords or wordsearches
Walking to library
Coffee with hubby
May I humbly request of you a small favor @Hadeda ??
My friend here @firemonkey would like to try his hand at writing but he needs a last push. His proficiency with words is awesome but he has a bit of a “meh” attitude. Maybe you could explain to him the benefits of keeping a diary or even writing in general, as well as give him tips on how to get started?
Thanks a million 
Benefits of keeping a journal - it’s a wonderful way to let out those bottled up feelings. It’s cathartic
very therapeutic. I find it organises my thoughts better. I write anything, I swear if I want to, scribble when I’m angry, anything.
Tips - buy a notebook and some fun and pretty pens (I don’t use any special ones because I am already motivated and use up a lot
) Maybe set up a special me time in day or night to write. Write when you feel the urge. Keep it in a private place. Have fun, release those emotions, cry onto the pages, anything.
Be free!
And good luck! 

thank you Gina. hope you are doing fine.
thank you. I am trying. nothing seems to help. I spend too much time on sz and mind’s tricks…
I am doing fine, thank you. I wish you well.
It’s been years since I tried to keep a diary.1) I would forget some days to fill it in 2) I seldom had anything interesting to say. Also a few abortive attempts at keeping an online journal . Again-little of interest to say. I think I put the B in boring.
That happens to anyone. It’s not a chronicle, it’s a diary.
It takes a bit of practice to see things in a different light. Any experience is unique. Your outlook on things also changes from year to year. It’s funny when you read things from long ago and you notice how your mindset, preoccupations etc have changed.
Life is all about change. Even those keeping strict routines are changing slowly but surely.
I guess my hobby is genealogy. I’ve very much got into the genetics side of it . Done a whole slew of tests . No major breakthroughs. Only one other person with my relatively rare surname has taken a test. We are a Y dna match at a genetic distance of 2 at 37 markers which strongly suggests we are related at some point . Unfortunately despite asking him he has not done the autosomal Family finder test that would strengthen the evidence for a cousin connection.
So you ARE able to have hobbies. I was a bit worried but not anymore ![]()
Are there any genealogy societies, where enthusiasts like you can share info and discuss freely?
There are societies but I live away from where my ancestors lived so local societies aren’t much good.
If anyone is into genealogy dna and has uploaded their data to Gedmatch my numbers there are T113527 M812599 A050067 and H 667627.
ye, recently i keep a diary of all delusions & hallucinations.
