What activities or hobbies can I focus on to distract myself or bring joy during this tough time?

you might not be able to change the world, but you do have some control over the small world that you live in. small changes like rearranging your living space, kitchen, pantry, etc., can help you feel a sense of accomplishment as does getting rid of useless garbage in your house. clean out your drawers! i find stuff i'll never use in some of them and i can either take them to a donation center or throw them away if they're that useless.

just put on some hooba and go at it! you will feel different when it's over. more focused on what's important in your life and even find some new goals and old hobbies you liked in the process.

Drawing, painting, video games, tabletop games, anime/cartoons, model kit building, cosplay, 3D printing, writing, composing music, animating, manga/comics, animal husbandry, nature documentaries, building technology, astronomy, biology, gardening, landscaping, cooking.

That depends girl, what are your interests. Do something your passionate about

[Zack-Bann]

Anything can be a distraction if you let yourself dive into it
So pick something you’re down to do.
I got into guitar after my last big breakup and do not regret it

[FunkyMonkee]

You mean, because of the economy?
Do you have any older music you like to listen to that reminds you of a certain period of your life that you liked a lot? Put together a compilation of that music.

That’s me literally I’ll be listening to hoobastank lol

[FunkyMonkee]

@Jrg98 I've spent the past 2 or 3 weeks listening to the Psych Demos collection I put together. I suspect I still have about 2 weeks to go before I'm done with it.

Doing Art work/Bowling/ Treat yourself to dinner out/Find a social group to join?

[kellytheman]

Workout physically or mentally, maybe some arts and crafts, make some new friends, be adventurous and take calculated risks that can bring joy in your life, go camping or hiking.

[worldscolide]

I'd kind of have to know your interests to make a suggestion.. Cause what I'd do may not match what you'd do.

[Ladsin2]

Focus on all the blessings you have in life. You have access to the internet so you're one of the wealthiest and well off people to have ever lived on the planet for example.

What ''tough'' time are you talking about?

Is there a famine, a war, political oppression, public unrest, or such around you?

I suggest: play Sudoku.

[EnjoytheDay777]

I like just getting out of my place and walking. Just escape from the routine part of life. I'm sorry you're having a rough time

[NamerOfStars]

Pretty much all of them. What do you like doing?

[shortster]

I find video games are very distracting. Reading fiction can also be engrossing.

[Oncewildtwiceburned]

Donate part of your livery and pick up archery

[MasterKS]

Give yourself time, Relax and Enjoy! Dance, Music, Good sex!

[Anonymous]

Take up juggling. Requires focus and being present, which is theraputic.

[MrGSpotHer]

I like nature and the forest and taking pics of it but it's probably safer here for me too

[SugarSugarplum]

Try reading or taking up the guitar.

[Jerre]

I recommend Genealogy
