I still get bored even with working so much, light exercise, and doing daily tasks. I guess I need a new non-physical hobby that is fun.
Anyone who struggle with addiction find healthy things to do that provided entertainment and was engaging?

Yes yes and yes. Not going to lie, I still drink (often till black out) about 2-3 times a week. But it’s a lot better than every night like I was. And yes I get so freaking bored!! I’ve picked up pointless hobbies and try to work out at least 3 days a week. I also like to visit family but my dad and brother are both substance abusers which make my visits short. To be honest, I sit on my ***... a lot. It’s when I’m sitting around doing nothing that I get cravings and reach for a drink or a pill. So I guess i don’t really have a answer for you but I do get it! Hang in there and ten days is awesome.
