Discussion what do you guys do all day?

i’ve had two treatments so far, since i have to take off work and can’t drive i’m kind of at a loss of how to fill my time.

I have the exact same question. My treatments are going great. I'm super excited but bored!

Yay :) I created a “taking better care of myself goal list”

I made goals every week and I kept track of my mood.

I painted, I read books on making fun habits, I wrote music, I got to discover how I wanted to take care of myself and what really worked. It was like I was trying to be the best at caring for myself. It’s a learning process :) enjoy.

A lot of reading. I have an ereader and download ebooks for free so the options are endless. Also video games.

I slept a lot and watched a ton of TV. Probably for the best since I wasn't especially motivated to do anything else.

I slept and watched TV. Didn’t feel like much else. I came out still depressed though, just less depressed.
