I’m on day 12, 1st time ever! I’m trying to get into new hobbies. I bought a Nintendo switch and was bowling last night. I have puzzles (unopened) bought in 2020. Trying to read more. I’m still struggling with sitting still, so I have been cleaning, fixing up my house. Welcome and congratulations on (almost) 11 months, that’s awesome!

Hello. I have been sober from heroin and cocaine for almost 3 years now and my biggest hobbies are also cardio I love to run atleast 2 miles a day on my treadmill. I am getting better with cooking to as I recently got my own place a couple months ago. Gardening is also a great hobby. It’s so fun and rewarding. I started off not knowing a thing about it. But it just comes to you naturally and is very relaxing and rewarding so I definitely suggest that. And like I said I run a lot to it’s very healthy for you and makes you feel amazing. I’ve also been trying to get closer to god recently to. I’ve been praying daily most days 2-3 times a day and recently got a Bible. All these things make me feel great so o definitely suggest them all :heart:

I’m 21 days sober today.

I don’t really have hobbies, I don’t think I do them frequently enough to be hobbies.

I love hiking/walking. I like to game, though I’m beginning to wain with that.

I’d like to shoot, but it’s not an easy hobby to start in the UK

Most of my spare time is now spent on my allotment. Where I grow a range of organic veg that are mostly eaten by the wild animals & birds in the surrounding area

The 3 R’s: Readin’, Runnin’, and Riffin’ (guitar playing).

Throw in some weights, gardening, and golf and I’m a happy person. So much time for all of this now that I killed that former #1 hobby of getting wasted.

My only real hobby are my cats. They are spoiled rotten. I’d love to read more than I find time to, cooking is a daily chore allthough I like cooking very much, so I don’t count it as hobby :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Does sleeping count as hobby? I like to nod off on the couch while petting a purring cat and trying to read :smile_cat:
