I know what you mean. I feel like an old retiree...but I'm not old. In the past, I have done art work, but medication has flattened my creativity...I'm just blank. I'm almost always reading a book, which helps fill the time. Chores and errands, of course. Sometimes a movie or show. Usually a walk. Time online. Honestly, I look forward to the days when I have appointments because filling the time is difficult. There are a lot of days when I feel anxious and depressed just because I'm so isolated and the day is long and empty.
I'll be moving to a new apartment soon, so that will take up some days.
I'm hoping that my old NAMI group will start meeting in person again soon. I really miss that group.
I admire you for being as social as you are.
