Is it normal to not have any hobbies or things your passionate about?

Question

Don’t have a lot of friends due to anxiety issues & haven’t ever really found anything that holds my interest to the point of being a hobby or anything. It’s so depressing, I feel like the most boring person alive. Advice?

Answer

Yep! I genuinely think over my life I have tried literally every single hobby you can ever imagine 😂 I’ll get reallyyyyy into it, spend a load of money of all the best equipment and stuff, obsess for like a week and then give up because I’m not immediatly perfect at it 😂 I have no patience to practice and want everything right straight away lol. So i give up.

Answer

BE MY BEST FRIEND!! LOL🤓😅 WE CAN BORE ONE ANOTHER WITH OUR LACK OF ACTUAL LIVES 😂😝😀😩 (Seriously. You just described my **daily existence** lol :) )

Answer

Try new hobbies and whatever sparks your interest is how you start discovering yourself

Answer

I think it's normal, but that it shouldn't be normal. We all need to find something we love in my opinion. I didn't find it until I was 30 but it ended up being weight lifting.

Answer

I dont have any real hobbies. I have interests and occasionally pursue them, but i dont do anything regularly. More like I’ll randomly get the urge to make a piece of jewelry or refinish a table or paint or go hiking or sing karaoke, etc… the only things i do regularly are walk, exercise, cook. I would rry those things first because you actually need to do them so they make great interests.

Answer

Glad I’m not the only one😬

Answer

Do you by chance have ADHD inattentive type? I do (though never realized it until adulthood) and I think that may contribute to my lack of hobbies. I do try to develop interests eg I like to cook so once a week or so I will watch a new (easy) recipe on youtube and try it. I dont have the attention span and executive function for a bigger project like art or furniture refinishing or sewing even though I find it very cool, and Im not a physical person enough to do sports, but cooking easy recipes is a short term commitment lol so it's more doable for me. I also like reading informational books/documentaries (I cant do long heavy novels) so I try to find something to learn about even for 15 mins here and there, it adds up.  I wouldnt call it a hobby by any means, but it helps a bit with personal development and to me thats more important than an entertainment hobby.

Answer

Me too 😭

Answer

I'm the same! I'll try out something new and literally get bored with it and can't follow thru. It's disappointing at times lol
