Right now, I'd say the biggest beneficial thing you can do is just experiment. Pick a few things that look interesting and find some beginner resources to dip your toes in. It's important not to over-analyze and be too critical of these new pursuits in the beginning. My problem was, quite frequently, I'd talk myself out of something before I really explored it to even decide with confidence if it really was for me or not.

Allow yourself to just go with an idea without judgement. Reserve your criticism for later when you have enough information to make a informed decision on if it is for you. Although, be aware that there are times when you can intuit your interest and desire based off of how it makes you feel early on, just don't be so quick to pivor away because sometimes it's just the learning curve of trying something new, and when you power through the initial discomfirt you find that you DO like whatever it is.

Bottom line: don't feel as if you need to rush. With some exploring and experimentation you'll find something that really resonates with you. For me that was writing and it's been incredibly refreshing.

Good luck, comrade ;)

I'd love an invite, username is kvasirofthewoods

Thank you. Absolutely. It is a scourge akin to the scourge of Capitalism, in fact exacerbated by the chains of the system and the despair it incurs to our fellow working class men and women. I'm blessed to have made it out, I can only hope to help our other brothers and sisters as well.

Definitely! It's good to have you. I hope it helps. I wish you great strides in your sobriety!

Thabk you for te clarification. I'm new and still grasping the fediverse terminology.

For sure. It's been a great past two weeks though. I'm definitetly feeling more like myself again.

Sweet! I just created it. It's called sobriety, I wanted a space where everyone could go to stay sober, not just alcoholics or a particular drug. Here's the link:
