Help With Depression Part 10 - Do Something Creative
In addition to
learning a new skill, many of us have existing pastimes that we love doing but
sometimes don’t get chance to practice. Lots of people like being creative,
developing things from scratch and enjoying the process of completing a task.
Enjoying yourself while you do this beats stress and boosts your self-esteem.
It gives you a focus and purpose that helps you forget the worries on your mind
or the difficult times at work. Being creative is consuming and leaves little
room in your mind for anything else.
Doing something
creative also means that for a while you are not an employee. A manager, a
father or a partner, you are just you doing something you enjoy. At the same
time, being creative allows you to express yourself in different ways, such as
drawing, painting, building or planting for example.
You may meet
different people while you are doing and again expanding your band of friends
and colleagues with similar interests.
