There is but all of it takes MONEY!! and TIME!!!. And i don't have enough alcohol around me to not be bored. Best I can do is video games(I'm lucky to have a laptop).

gaming is great (I usually play an hour or 2 a day) but break it up a bit. maybe do an online micro credential, you can normally find free short courses. learn a language (easy to do for free if you have internet and some time). learn a new skill. learn design so you can put the laptop to work. and every now and then, when gaming burns you out, learning is too much and you literally have no chance to do anything else, sit under a tree for a little bit. yes, even at night. it'll help

I have ADHD, my time is fucked once I get into gaming.

If you have a laptop that can play video games, there is so much else you can do. Not that there's anything wrong with video games. Video games are awesome.

I can, learned to use Linux. Learning python now. But I was talking about real world things like camping, and going on trips, watching snowfall(I've never seen snowfall), going to the beach or the zoo. You can only spend so much time in the virtual world, but the real world takes money and time.
