For me, depending on the circumstances:

  • Beer
  • Coffee
  • A hot bath (don’t hate)

    Cold beer or glass of wine and music…sometimes listening or, when really stressed, playing piano or guitar while singing, all badly I must admit…and the singing usually requires more than one adult beverage.

    Music is really a part of everything in my life really. I use it to:

    • Wake up
    • Get energized
    • Relax
    • Express my mood
    • Concentrate
    • Distract myself
    • Fall asleep

    If I am not playing it I am listening to it. If I am not listening to it it’s playing in my head

    Building Gunpla. Cutting the plastic off runners, sanding the pieces, washing, adding panel liner, decals. I find it a relaxing hobby.

    I’m a big gamer, so that factors into a lot of my downtime. Binging shows on whatever streaming service I’m using is a key one too. I used to unwind by browsing reddit, but that place ended up becoming such a ragebait factory that it had the opposite effect. I’m enjoying unwinding with some lemmy though.
