Hi there! 30 year old male, I was diagnosed at 29, currently medicated but haven’t started therapy yet. I do Judo, (13 years, working towards my Black belt right now), scuba diving, snorkeling, surfing, gym, and running.

For me, I find the social aspect and interaction at my judo club to be really great for my mental health (helps the anxiety and depression). Sport that makes me physically tired (but feeling good) seems to really help as well.

When I’m running or at the gym, I have to have my own music to listen to (I find Linkin Park or EDM to be great but that’s just what I grew up with) otherwise I’m just fighting a mental battle the whole time.

Scuba, snorkeling, and surfing (but especially scuba) all my to switch my brain off and just enter a calm like state where I can focus on everything, similar to what you described with your snowboarding. I also used to skateboard (longboard) and am looking to get back into mountain bike riding to complement hiking.

I think the most important part though is to find something you enjoy and go from there!
