I love reading, but when I'm depressed I want to lay on my couch and look up at the ceiling. I have managed to make myself read, just one chapter at a time. And in the past 4 days I'm now on page 224 of a fantasy book. I love fantasy books. I had 3 redwall books delivered yesterday from amazon and it took the depression away for a brief 15 minutes as I was obsessing over my Christmas present I got for myself. I also am obsessed with my dog. She gets organic, GMO-free food for 20 bucks a small bag (even though I eat mcdonalds and taco bell regularly) I love doing things for her. I take her on walks near the riverwalk where I live. I buy her toys she never plays with. I feel like fantasy books and my dog are the two hobbies that keep me alive. If I'm spending time with my dog, it's like I'm doing something nice for her, even though I can't do anything nice for myself. And the fantasy books also let me go to another world when this one is crap. What are your hobbies that keep you going?
