Not that I have anything else to do ever, but it's easier for me to think of stuff that way. I mean....like you just said you do this in the day, and this at night.

I see yeah. Sometimes I feel like I have too much on my plate but I'd rather have it be like this than getting bored.

Nobody likes to think of what a disabled life might be like...

Understandable. I've been on disability since I was 18. I've never lived a normal life. I hardly even go out. What I do to cope tho is keep myself busy with my community, content creating, art, livestreaming, gaming, and various projects.

Tbh streaming and creating content has helped me feel a lot more confident. For example, in the past when I went to a big dinner get together I felt so awkward when they were going around the table stating what they do for work or for a living. I was the only one who said 'nothing, I just stay home.' But now days I happily can say I'm a livestreamer, content creator and artist. Ik it's not an actual job and I hardly if ever at all get paid for it but it's what I do, love and am proud of.

For those like me who are on disability and can't get out much, we can give ourselves things to do and work on. It's also quite rewarding sometimes. I also like to have nice communities like this to connect with like minded individuals and others who can relate. heart

Oh wow!! that's so much more then what I do at all!! When I move out my life will be quite different. but rn I do nothing but gaia, random art things(coloring, painting and drawing), watching stuff and playing animal crossing.

When we move, hubby will be my dad's property manager and will do the booking for the airbnb. and I will go to Voc Rehab and get a job coach and he will help me out with a job!!!! We'll be closer to our lives and will save up to travel and aaaaall kinds of stuff!! I will get a big old bathtub for bubbly baths and a garden space and walking around finally and EVENTUALLY we will travel to Germany and England and get some pets probably.

Wow that sounds great! Those are some big goals! I hope you reach them in no time. ^^ I couldn't imagine traveling for the time being. My back and mind can't take it. I say mind because I stress out HEAVILY if I'm on a plane, train, or whatever for more than a couple hours. And my back, well that's obvious.

But yeah also nothing wrong with not having a whole lot going on for the time being. It can just be a time to kick back, chill and take it easy for a bit. If you ever get bored perhaps try to find something new to get into. lol

but that takes supplies, and supplies take lots of moneys. I'm already running low on paint...
I want to knit a hat, but again....supplies...and directions and youtube learning videos....eeeeeggghhh

Yeah that's why I haven't got back into crafting. I miss DIY and such. It's kind of part of the goth life. I use to paint too but not paintings, figures and wooden things. I miss the crap out of that. One day when we get a second source of income I will def get back into that! Knitting is also cool. Maybe one day I will give it a shot. I hear the supplies for knitting are pretty cheap. 3nodding

Understandable. I'd be the same. It's like when I tried using a tablet to do my art. Everyone kept saying I NEED to use it and I'd be so much better. -.- Once I tried, I didn't like it, couldn't get it and wasn't having it. I don't want it, and I don't need it. I'm fine just using mouse.

Anyways, so for knitting, perhaps watch some YT tutorials or talk to someone who is experienced with it and maybe you can see if it could be something you can get a hang of. I know someone on here who knits and posts her projects. She's in the GD and is pretty nice, AshleysanAdult. If you go over to GD she has a bunch of threads and often posts about her knitting stuff. 3nodding

I also use to heavily look up to an admire another goth on here who was big into knitting and would make and sell gothy knitted pieces. They were so cute. It's a shame she no longer has her etsy or gets on here tho.

Was that the BBC code? When you click on the image after uploading it, on the right there's a bunch of codes. the BBC one is the one you want for sharing the images here. If it doesn't work when you do that then I have no idea what's wrong. And for me it just says User Image when it's not working.
