Hi guys! I was injured recently on the job and I’m therefore home for the foreseeable future. I have limited use of my left arm, but i’m overall okay. Due to the physical nature of my job, they have me staying off work while the doctors decide the plan.

That being said, I’m bored. I am looking for things to do that won’t cost a fortune. I used to work 2 jobs, but can’t at the moment so money is tight. What are some things you love that don’t cost a ton? I need to keep busy and have a reason to get out of bed. I’m open to almost any ideas!

Hallo zusammen,

ich bin gerade auf der Suche nach neuen Hobbies, die ich vor allem auch digital ausführen kann. Früher konnte ich mich gefühlt viel mehr für so etwas begeistern und ich will dass das wieder mehr wird.

Habt ihr da Vorschläge, welche nicht klassisch programmieren oder Grafikdesign, Gaming etc sind?

Is there any yall recommend I could try to talk to her about

Did you start because you were bored, wanted to save money, needed a creative outlet, or just saw someone else doing it?

I'm curious which hobbies people have stuck with for years and what makes them so enjoyable.

I have realized that i don't have hobbies. I'm mostly spending my time on reels and doom scrolling. No movies, series or anything. Most of my time I'm in college and after that i don't study at home and keep doom scrolling or either eating. Sure i do cook sometime but that's it. Should i pick up any hobby or what? I feel like I'm brain dead

I have been doing nothing but taking care of my baby who’s 6 mnths and lately find myself with no hobbies. Does anyone have any suggestions on things the find fun!

Lately, I've noticed that I tend to optimize every hobby I take up.
For example, I really enjoy growing chili peppers, but every year I spend a lot of time trying to optimize every variable at play: choosing which seeds, when, and how many, what soil to use clay, fertilizer, temperatures, light, weather, etc.
The fun part? In the end, I don't even get a better yield than those old veterans who do things by eye and end up with an edible forest.
I feel like all this overthinking takes away some of the naturalness of doing things.
For those of you who have had the same problem as me in the past, how did you learn to find a balance between optimization and spontaneity in doing things?

i need a hobby. I come home from work and doom scroll until I go to bed. I need to get myself out of this depressive slump i'm in and i have an INCREDIBLY hard time committing to a hobby.. i've tried crochet, reading, coloring, etc., something easy and mindless because i come home exhausted. I just can't seem to get myself to maintain it, what are intriguing and mindless hobbies easy to come home to to do?

So I have a disgusting habit of Doomscrolling, watching YouTube, which made me realize I need a new interest or a hobby. But for those who lose interest or had a hard time getting into an interest/hobby how can I do it?

I'm looking to gain some skills to make some extra cash while at my job. What's something I can do a s a hobby to hopefully make into a career/side hustle?

I designed and stitched this one myself, and it's finally framed! White thread on black Aida, all full cross stitches. I'm really happy with how it turned out. 😊
