I liked taking walks with friends, and I've taken up knitting, but knitting things for my brother even though winter is over. It forces me to concentrate (something I actually find difficult as my mind either zones out or wanders) and I've gotten really good at it. I think doing things for other people in general, whether it's cleaning to help my Dad or cooking for my family makes me feel better. The "sense of accomplishment" (as my dad puts it) makes me forget all the things wrong going on and lets me focus on what I've done, or what I can do with my own two hands.
