Mental health and hobbies or interests?

[JennyorAlice]

How does it affect your mental health to not be able to participate in your hobbies or interests?

 

[Shree]

Not being able to enjoy hobbies can affect mental health because those activities often provide a break from stress and something to look forward to. Losing that outlet can lead to boredom, frustration, or feeling disconnected from yourself. Even small chances to stay connected with interests can help maintain a sense of balance.
