Coping Skills/Passing Time

[Matt]

There’s lots of good hobbies that help us create something and feel good about it Humans are creators! We all are. One of the best things about being sober is that your creator is set free to create.

I like to build: with wood if I have time, or if I’m in a rush, I play with Lego. I have a box of Lego in my car!

There’s a good thread about people’s hobbies, here; I’m sure you’ll find some relevant shares:

So I know lots of people here do lots of interesting stuff! Thought it would be good to hear them, mainly cos I’m nosey but also could be inspiration for other people looking for ways to fill their sober lives. I do belly dancing, yoga, and some volunteering. I’m a trustee at a youth club and help out at a soup kitchen. Do a bit of walking too. Am also supposed to be doing an MSc but struggling to find the motivation to make a start on my final project!
