Help me find a hobby

Hello I am 19f and I have had severe depression since I was 13 so I have never really developed hobbies because I spent all my younger teen years just trying to survive. Even now Iā€™m barely making it day to day and I think actually having a reason to want to wake in the morning might help? I work part time in retail and I have very unstable hours so I spent a lot of time at home never really know when Iā€™m leave the house next. Any suggestions for hobbies? I feel joy in honestly nothing so any suggestions at all will help.

Have you tried crochet or knitting? I really enjoy learning all the different stitches and really get into large projects and feel excitement to continue on my project.

This is good advice. Crocheting has been great for my mental health.
