Finding a hobby helps with self identity - something you're really passionate about, not just to pass time. I've always liked animals, and I raise goats now, so I'm the goat lady. People think it's cool until they find out how much my life revolves around it, lol. I recommend getting into something cheaper and less stressful :P
