What is a good hobby for a depressed person? (lemm.ee)

So i still have depression and im constantly bored, i feel like a loser who cant do anything right. I want to let my creativeness out, make something i can share with the world or family, but im probably dreaming too big. I cant stand being depressed and bored, it stinks, everyone tells me to work out but i lack the motivation to do so.

i usually just watch youtube all day while complaining to family members that have no idea what to do about me.

Uninstall/disable the YouTube app. Trust me you will be a happier person

Fun fact: you can uninstall pretty much every single social network app, it will still work over your mobile web browser. The only exceptions are Twitch, and... well, Reddit as you probably know already - in that case you can try using the desktop mode of your browser.

Second fun fact: a few mobile websites still allow you to get a notification from the browser itself
