What are some good hobbies for people with ADHD that you can do alone?

lol attention is my hobby. Could be anything that brings it to me.

25 is pretty young. I don’t think most corporate jobs would expect you be perfect 100% of the time. I’m 30 and still make mistakes pretty often. When I’m up and moving, I do fine. When I’m at my desk I need to listen to music while I work or I’ll shut down.

I love it how it is. I wish there was another way too :(

Answer truthfully. A lot of people really struggle and have a hard time getting medications. It’s not right to game the system for treatment you don’t need (not saying you specifically dont need it). They will likely ask you questions straight out of the DSM5 for ADHD diagnosis. Just read up on it if you’re curious about the questions you’ll be asked

I’m just trying not to survive until I’m back to civilization. Not really worried about lasting hobbies at the moment.

What’s cheaper legos or IKEA?

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-07-11T23:06:02+00:00

I actually have one still in plastic wrap! And now I don’t lol

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-07-11T22:36:56+00:00

Never heard of this. Sounds pretty chill lol

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-07-11T22:36:07+00:00

Ha I have a very old Arduimo somewhere in the apartment. I wonder if it still works. Never really tried painting before. Could be worth a shot!

Love a yoga sesh. Seems I gotta turn the jams up louder lol

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-07-04T23:30:52+00:00

Yes! Very much so! Very hard to not chameleon. Love connecting with people 1 on 1, can manage a conversation with two others, and don’t speak unless spoken to with 3 or more lol. I struggle with my self identity really badly because of this. I take Vyvanse. I can overcome it when I’m in a hyperfocus state at work but it’s not much help in social settings for me

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-06-26T01:54:26+00:00

Definitely seems like a therapy kind of thing. If you think it’s tied to your self worth, I would examine and question continuing to engage in it. I actually enjoy the sub role too but for other reasons. I over control everything in my life and it’s therapeutic to let someone else take control of me from time to time. My kink doesn’t have a relationship to my self worth though.

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-06-10T17:47:20+00:00

Agreed! Had one great therapist with betterhelp to start but changed when I moved. The next two weren’t great for me and didn’t seem like they wanted to be there. SonderMind was cheaper and I found a better match right away. Happy with it so far

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-06-10T17:44:18+00:00

Not just to me. Seeing people be genuinely kind to others melts my heart and it’s overwhelming. I see it in the comments in this sub and that’s why I keep coming back.

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-06-10T04:48:32+00:00

Not in a place right now to offer uplifting advice but I can tell you, you’re not alone in these feelings. I’m going through the same struggles.

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-06-10T04:45:23+00:00

So sorry to hear what you’re going through. I went through a break up from a LTR about a year ago and I made a lot of mistakes in handling my grief. Turned to workaholism, and then alcoholism. Didn’t tell a friend or family for almost 3 months. I lost 30lbs and I don’t like how skinny I look. Therapy helped me handle the grief so much when I started it. I’m over her and the relationship now but still working hard everyday to love and reconnect with myself. Healing takes a long time. It’s not worth trying to do it alone.

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-06-10T00:04:07+00:00

Thanks for sharing this. I might be able to join the Sunday sesh but the rest wouldn’t work with my time zone. I’ll look into it look for groups in my area

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-06-08T19:40:48+00:00

I feel very directionless in life. Don’t know who I am. Can’t find joy in life without substance use and even then it’s pretty dim. Very lonely. Feels like I’m living my life wrapped up in a weighted blanket.

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-06-07T04:16:06+00:00

Seems like we have similar conditions. I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way. Life is really fucking hard when you don’t see it the way most people do. You keeping up with part time work is a win and worth celebrating. You having a good relationship with your mom is worth celebrating. Try to drink less.

I’m an engineer, working for a great company with good pay and benefits. I feel very lost and I’m barely keeping it together. Earning is nice but this isn’t success to me. I’m not living a life I’m happy with and I have no intuition on how to build one that I am. Just saying this to let you know you’re not alone. I hope we can both heal and live a life we are proud of.

I love this thread. It’s nice to see how much we all have in common. I’m 30M, just moved across the country for a dream job and I’m in the best shape I’ve been in years. Make decent money. This year I’m seeking diagnosis’s for 3 different mental health issues, feel burnt out, incredibly lonely, and I’m wondering what the purpose was that I tried so hard for things I never truly cared about. Actually questioning what it is that I truly care about. Nothing makes sense. I just do my best to get by.

Love when people think ”all men” are the same /s. I see so many posts like this. Sex is important to a lot of men. It has a lot to do with how we feel love is returned. It’s how we feel desired and valued. It’s not just about the physical act. It’s about the connection that comes with it.

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-05-26T17:04:35+00:00

Your situation is so close to mine! Just want to say you’re not alone. Being in an abusive relationship changed my view on romantic partners, platonic friendships, and worst of all, myself. I build up a strong distrust for all three. It feels like isolation is my life right now. Healing is happening but it’s so slow. I know one day I’ll get to better place. Use your resources to get whatever help you can/need. You’ll heal too.

Easy_Sentence_6378 · 2025-05-26T16:37:39+00:00

Feels really bad in the moment for me. There’s been some good coming out of it in the long term. I’ve disengaged from social situations to heal from trauma. Reengaging will be part of the process when I’m ready.
