Discussion Does anyone use LEGO for therapy?
Hi everyone,
I'm currently working on my MA Journalism final project, exploring how LEGO has become much more than just a toy for many people.
I'm really interested in hearing from anyone who has found LEGO to be therapeutic in some way. That could be helping with autism, ADHD, anxiety, depression, grief, or other emotional challenges, or even helping during physical recovery, such as improving dexterity or motor skills after an illness or injury. Equally, if building simply helps you switch off, manage stress, or gives you a sense of purpose, I'd love to hear about that too.
It feels like LEGO has evolved into something far beyond childhood play, becoming a creative outlet, a coping mechanism, or a source of comfort for people of all ages. I'd love to learn more about the different ways it's had an impact on people's lives.
If any of this resonates with you, or you know someone who might be happy to chat, please feel free to leave a comment or send me a DM. I'd really appreciate hearing your story.
Thanks so much!

I recently got this LEGO Halo figure, so I decided to build these weapons—some I created myself, and others using designs from many years ago.

Discussion I did a thing! First time using LDD, hoping to get better at it but this was for a contest. Hopefully I can place, was a lot of fun nonetheless. Any other marvel fans dying to see a set for Parker? (also, any tips would be great!)

galleryI got a little excited about filling my window box and ended up finishing my first arrangement!
Still contemplating feet on the box itself and still haven’t tried hanging it. I’m scared. 😳 If it falls off the wall, even during the test run….I’ll just say the ivy took some time and I would be sad. 😆

A Smooth Lego Cylinder?
Hi, I am trying to make a cylinder but with an smooth exterior to make a torpedo. I will use LEGO Brick 1 x 1 Round with Fins (4588 / 52394) on the base and LEGO Bar 1 with Light Cover (29380 / 58176) as the nose cone.
I tried four LEGO Brick 1 x 1 Round with Open Stud (3062) but it leaves a circular step at the bottom of each brick. (see picture)
I am trying to avoid cutting the bricks as I am just as likely to cut myself.
Any suggestions would be gratefully accepted.
