doing trivia/ other stuff to do with the brain, even if you end up not so good at it

I guess this works for me, because i'm very competitive and hate losing.

I get so involved in trying to work out the answers, or trying to work out the best way to approach something, my mind wonders from the negative thoughts

tearing things up (which is why I have loads of pictures I draw just to tear later)

any kids animation. I find something oddly calming about animations

music

making up stories/ poems

even if you never finish them, at that time if you want to write something, go for it

looking at my magazeen with pictures of dogs in it

reading about amusement parks (though that's more an obsession)
