[QUOTE="ladybird64, post: 267097, member: 29023"] Brilliant thread! :) Craigybus, I think you might be surprised just how many of us have depression, I'm one of the elite same as your good self. :wink: I haven't got a daft hobby (puts on a superior air and a saintly expression :angel: ) but I learnt another language and I keep myself up to speed with that. I took evening classes during an extremely difficult period of my life and I think that diversion was a life saver. Seeing as I am rather skint-ish, I scour charity shops for books in my favoured language and set myself to reading them, really takes some concentration so my mind can't wander elsewhere. I am also a member of some other non-related forums so that keeps my mind busy too. As for lego and other such activities- nah..can't do it. Hate jigsaws with a vengeance (no patience), can't paint, can't draw or do anything of an artistic nature. While going through a bad period of anxiety and depression, being the pro-active person I am, I thought knitting would be a good pastime, something relaxing for me to do. Pffft. :evil: :evil: I stabbed myself in the hand with the needles, some stitches were so loose they dropped off the needles, some so tight they squeaked and just when I thought I was getting somewhere the ball of wool rolled off my lap, across the floor and ended up under the bookshelf, gathering dust bunnies as it went. The wool and needles are in a box. In a cupboard. Hidden beneath a million other things..and they are staying there. Kudos to all you arty, handy types out there..I'll stick with my imperfect tenses and my reflexive verbs. :D Should have mentioned that these are great Lego creations Craig :clap: [/QUOTE]
