You can always try setting up a fish tank (at least 10 gallons). Those things require enough care to be considered a hobby, especially if you want to include live vegetation. Sourdough bread baking is another option. You literally have to "feed" your sourdough starter regularly to keep it functioning and ready for bread making. And who doesn't like fresh bread? Assuming you don't have a gluten allergy of course š There's always gardening as well, even if it's a tiny windowsill garden.
It might be kinda stupid but find a rock and make it ur pet! You can make it a house out of cardboards and maybe even dress the rock up!
i get REALLY easy arts and crafts projects. like paint by number or puzzles. Its auto pilot and time-consuming.
Crocheting is my hobby! Try it out itās difficult at first but once you get the hang of it itās repetitive and relaxing! And you get to make cool things like beanies and blankets
I grew some herbs in an indoor garden last winter. I liked being able to smell them and use them.
One of my hobbies is carving. With carving, you get to choose what you want to make and then you just work for hours trying to get the layout. Itās hard work tbh but it helps you stay busy and you can paint it after if you want. It can take hours to days to weeks sometimes (depending on what youāre making and how big it is) and you can buy the tools at your nearest crafts store and you can find a big branch anywhere too or just buy wood.
Hobbies! It's important to have things in our lives other than OCD, which bring us joy, calm us down and can provide a good way to redirect our attention away from obsessions and compulsions. I'm curious about your hobbies and interests! I enjoy painting and learning languages- I reached B2 in Swedish and am starting on Korean. I love to follow artists on YouTube who show their methods step by step and try them out. I also decided to learn more Python (programming language) and brush up my C++ in order to work in software development and eventually data science, so I am making a plan to write some code every day. I find that redirecting my attention to these hobbies when I'm anxious makes my OCD symptoms reduce and ensures that life isn't entirely passing me by even though I struggle to be social.
I love being able to talk about my interests with others and I'd love to hear all your guys too !! Step aside from our fears and worries for a bit, What are your favorite hobbies ? What got you into them ? Would you like to pursue anything with them or is it just something for fun and to enjoy ? āŗļø
hey guys i was just wondering if anyone has any āself careā tips or different things to do that helps with their OCD ( or any mental illness ). Ive heard things like journaling and meditation but i want more things to do that can help better myself
