What do you do outside of work? I have no motivation to do anything

[Boredfedupnomotivation]

So I'll start this by saying I think I'm depressed or just fed up and that makes me not want to do much.
I work full time in a school, love it when I'm there , so I get weekends and school holidays off.
I have a husband who is completely antisocial and never leaves the house.
I have 2 teenagers. Up until now all of my time has been dictated by them, I never had a minute and i loved it. Now they are more independent, don't want to go on our family days out anymore and spend a lot of time in their rooms when we are at home talking to friends/gaming.
I am lost. I don't know how to be just me and i don't know how to fill my time.
All of my friends work full time so I cannot spend my days with them. I have no siblings , I'm an only child of very elderly parents . I visit them as much as I can .
Unfortunately I have mobility problems and find walking very painful so this affects how much i can do. I am very unfit and very overweight. I am aiming to lose some weight this year .
I have no hobbies and no desire to start one.
There is only shopping and browsing shops and there is only so much of that one can do .
How do I fill my time during the winter? Summer is alot better as I enjoy the garden and being outside , we also have a caravan in Wales that I take the kids to very regularly, I just hate winter
We have no plans at all for this second week off school, we are just sitting round the house and i am bored!!!

My main hobby outside of work is running which I do 6 days a week but with mobility problems I appreciate that will be tough.

I also love reading, is there a book club you could join? It's not my think but a lot of my friends do things like life drawing, choirs etc.

My main hobby is swimming which I do before work 5 times a week. I am overweight but slowly losing it and have some health issues but i find this time swimming both mentally and physically important. I do feel tired but read most evenings and try and have some crafts on the go, dH and I have also tried to start doing things just the 2 of us like the cinema or lunch out. We also do make time for friends. I think it is a difficult transition time but you do have the make an effort to do things that give you joy. If you are depressed then do see the GP.

I meant to add I'm not a social person either, I look to do things either by myself or just with my family.

How about National Trust properties? Lots now have 'ramblers' - basically off-road mobility scooters - for you to use on site and are a lifesaver for DM when she wants to get out and about, but can't walk far. We've found them very weather-proof for winter.

Any home-based hobbies take your fancy like Lego, knitting/crotchet, watching old movies etc?

I appreciate you don't really want to be doing stuff with other people but do you have any parents in your network whose kids you could 'steal' for an afternoon - you could go do the days out etc it sounds like you enjoyed doing before and you might find it quite fun (younger children are much more enjoyable when you can give them back 😉)

Volunteering you can do without people? Our local soup van has a roster of people who make the sandwiches/cakes and drop them off before the van goes out. People free and doing good - bonus that you can do it over a few days and not all in one go. Foodbanks etc need people to drop off packages to people who can't drive - minimal human interaction again.
