For me, depending on the circumstances:
- Beer
- Coffee
- A hot bath (don’t hate)
Building Gunpla. Cutting the plastic off runners, sanding the pieces, washing, adding panel liner, decals. I find it a relaxing hobby.

A walk. If really anxious, a jog works. Apparently it is possible to outrun it, even at my pace.
Sex.
A cocktail while sitting on the front porch, or yes if it’s winter, a coffee while sitting on the front porch.
At bedtime if wound too tight, yin yoga works so well to knock me out.
Play computer games
Take a walk in the nearby forest
Sauna
mine’s similar, except it goes bowl, beer, bath (yes, with bubbles)
My wife introduced me to the joys of scented candles. Subdued lighting and nice scents for the win.
you just reminded me to get more incense! #tubtherapy 😁👍
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.
I love games that are fast paced. It’s my way to escape.
I switched to board games instead! There are so incredibly well designed and immersive board games now, that also can be played solo! Marvel Champions, Spirit Island, Arkham Horror The Card Game, just to name a few…
