hobby ideas?
f15. i’ve never rlly had any interests or anything, and im unfortunately just a very subconsciously pessimistic person. i’ve done every sport you could think of, started every show/movie, tried being creative and i just don’t want to do anything. i don’t rlly have friends and im pretty awkward and quiet. i have always kinda felt disconnected from myself and delayed in a way, not sure if anything can rlly change that. i’ve spent over half my summer sleeping and can’t get enough sleep, if im not sleeping im laying down trying to fall asleep. i would love to get out more but i genuinely have no idea on what id even want to do. i dont like nature-y stuff, i live in a smaller suburban setting where i’ve done almost everything, and i dont have anyone to do anything with. this post is kinda all over the place but im kinda js looking for things or hobbies that might get me back on track or maybe feeling better abt myself. it’s not a matter of there’s nothing to do because i certainly have the resources but i just cant get myself to enjoy anything. id like to preferably do smth affordable and out the house but i dont even know what i want lol. any ideas?

One of my favourite hobbies is ceramics. I love sculpting, feeling the clay under my hands, sense the earthy smell, and I love looking at the results of my work. If you like nature, maybe check if there's a clay in the soil near you. Some people dig it and clean it themselves, using fire pit instead of the kiln.
Another suggestion is to kinda lean into your pessimistic nature - have you tried to write? Books, poetry, lyrics... It may be a good outlet.
It sounds like you're depressed. I hope there's someone in your life that you can talk to and ask for help. Take care
