learn to play the keyboard

[skar]

I try to keep my hands occupied so I thought I'd buy a keyboard to self- teach myself. I also thought of trying to learn how to crochet again, ...using my hands for something positive and getting my mind off finding the next closest mirror to pick.


Good luck!

Any sort of hobby that uses your hands -- I like to knit -- is very helpful. Knitting has definitely helped keep my hands off of my face when I'm watching TV; I used to pick a lot, without even realizing it, while I was watching TV.

Learning how to play a keyboard isn't something that you can do while you do something else, but I think that it'd be a great thing to learn. Basically, I've found that anything that I can do to stay busy (cooking, playing soccer, skating, taking kickboxing classes at the gym, knitting) is just another activity that keeps me away from the mirror. I think that's why I like sleeping so much.
