What is a good hobby for a depressed person?

QuietStorm@lemm.ee to Asklemmy@lemmy.ml – 382 points –

So i still have depression and im constantly bored, i feel like a loser who cant do anything right. I want to let my creativeness out, make something i can share with the world or family, but im probably dreaming too big. I cant stand being depressed and bored, it stinks, everyone tells me to work out but i lack the motivation to do so.

i usually just watch youtube all day while complaining to family members that have no idea what to do about me.

I don't recommend this if you're looking for a good hobby to not be depressed haha. Something outside or at least away from screens is probably better.

well some people enjoy spending time infront of screens, like me.

Same. I work in tech. But it's definitely not the best starter hobby for someone who's explicitly trying to find a hobby to help with depression.
