Get Back into Hobbies

When you are depressed, you stop doing things. Beyond eating correctly, or sleeping right, you stop doing things that you once enjoyed. If you enjoy knitting, or reading, or cooking, you might stop doing those things. You might find it hard to get back into these habits as you move deeper into depression. The reality is that these are symptoms of depression and being able to overcome this symptom and return to your hobbies is a way to get better. But how do you do that?

The first step is to pick a hobby that you wish to return to. Don't try for all of them at once, start with one. Take some time to think about what made you enjoy that hobby to begin with. Then start it. If it was playing music, grab your instrument. If it was knitting, go for the needles. Just start. Get back into your groove and see how quickly it all comes back to you, the enjoyment of it as much as anything else.

Then look for groups that you can join related to the hobby. Book clubs, knitting circles, cooking clubs, even an open-mic night. By going to these groups, you will be encouraged to continue your hobby because you will be getting positive feedback. After you have gotten yourself energized from the first hobby, start a second. Move forward, making that progress. Pretty soon you will be back in the swing of things like you were to begin with.
