I'm just curious what some of y'all might do to pass the time? I typically get off work by about 4pm everyday, go home, eat something and then just wait to go bed. I basically just do instagram, youtube, facebook or video games during that time but obviously that's not very productive.
When I got off work today, I sat on my porch (outside) and read a book.
I love that. I really enjoy doing stuff outside, which I do when I visit back home. Unfortunately I live in an apartment where that's not really an option. If the weather's nice though, I do like to open the windows and let the breeze through.
How about joining a gym? Exercise is always good
Reading has really helped me, maybe crafting too or walking ur dog
I am in the exact same boat rn :/
Books. Detailing cars. Cooking healthy. Sounds like your a guy. Go wrench on the car. Learn detailing. Fix things around the house. Get abs. Eat healthy. Fill your mind with books and knowledge. I mean we couldn’t possibly know your hobbies or interests but get rid of all screens and stare at the wall with a blank sheet of paper until the true you starts coming out
Read, write, exercise, meditate, do chores, watch TV, spend time with loved ones… lots of options that are also productive 💚
Get led lights
Why led lights? Ironically I've actually been looking at getting some leds to wire into pieces of driftwood for lamps or decorations, but I'm just curious why you're suggesting leds?
@JohnG They make me feel at ease when I turn them on particularly white one and they say it’s good for anxiety and depression
Hi! Does anyone have advice on how to manage your time well or time management systems and recourses (app, etc.) to help one (with ocd) stay on top of daily tasks, goals, etc.?
I'm wondering if this is a common OCD experience: does anyone else find that when you have idle time, your mind just spirals into endless rumination on negative "what ifs" & intrusive thoughts? It's been happening to me for the past three years, which coincides with starting a really high-stress job. Weekends used to be my time to relax, but now I dread weekends...I only feel relief when I'm sleeping because it's the only time my mind seems to quiet down. It's honestly so depressing to lose that enjoyment. Does anyone else relate to this, and if so, what helps you cope?
i’m in college and on my summer break now. i don’t have a job yet or much to occupy myself with and im finding it really difficult to keep my ocd under control. if i have nothing to do, i find myself sitting around and ruminating heavily and getting severely anxious and my thoughts just keep wandering. i don’t really feel peace of mind unless im with my boyfriend or my best friend, both of which i don’t get to see often because they’re very busy or live far away. im not sure how to keep myself busy and how to occupy my brain with something other than worries :(
