    I understand, good luck with it and I hope you can find peace of mind later in life.

    If you have the opportunity, you might wanna try fishing. It’s a great way to step away from the information overload and just enjoy what’s around you. It’s cheap and accessible, as long as you’re near water, and it’s quite rewarding to spend a few hours casting away in nature.

      I’ve considered fishing, but the equipment is expensive, and all the closest locations are pretty far. When I need to chill I just play a game or go for a smoke.

        Well, location can be tricky, that’s for sure, but they sell some pretty cheap rod and reel combos that are great for trout fishing for around $20-$35 that’ll get you going pretty quickly. Other than that, you just need a lure, or a bobber and hook, all of those are gonna be around $5 total, and some bait. Digging for worms after it rains is pretty easy, even grabbing bugs on location is a great way to get bait!

        I’ll bring something to smoke with me, usually, too. It’s a nice combo. Or a cooler with some crisp beers inside, great way to spend an afternoon or early morning.
