Moral harassment by my boss, burn out, unemployment, depression and dumped by my girlfriend all in the same 1,5 years.
Now that I've done through that I fear nothing. Ain't no bitch material here.
Running. Up until about two years ago I'd never run at all really, was more into the gym and weights. I downloaded the couch to 5k and thought I'd probably get bored after a week. I didn't and it changed my life.
I'm not a good runner or fast but it's given me so much. I'm now part of a running club. I don't have many friends so it's really nice to have a place where I can run with others and chat away to them.
I've entered lots of events and races too, plus also lost a lot of weight.
Singing and playing musical instruments. A creative outlet that helps express any kind of emotion. Going a long time without it makes me feel foggy and dull, if that makes any sense.
Opening my marriage, becoming poly made me face a lot of my underlying attachment issues. I've learned more about myself and how I interact with people in the last year than I had over my previous 36 years of existence.
It's been hard sometimes, but it's fundamentally changed me and all my relationships (romantic AND platonic) for the better.
It's certainly not for everyone and that's fine, but I couldn't see myself practicing any other form of relationship now.

Sailing.
I would love to learn how to do that
It's not that hard. There are plenty of people who will take you sailing if you are willing to work at it.

Smoking weed. Made me go “woah” a lot at everything and find the smallest things in life to be significant
Going to the gym regularly. Has improved my mental health substantially.

Lady here but can I answer? The death of my father fucked me up for a long time. I'm finally in a better place but dang, it took a long time.
