I need a hobby to pass evenings

But my general anxiety and moderate depression makes it hard

I need a hobby that
1. Doesn't cost much
2. Doesn't feel like a waste of time (like doong jigsaws. I have no more room on my walls, or
anyone to gift, but knowing I'm gonna put the pieces into pieces makes me think "why bother?"
3. Sports don't matter to me ynless I'm actively playing, but my health is too bad to do so
4. I can't draw or paint, so it feels like a waste of paper and utensils.

Basically: I need a something that actually matters, but can be done whenever I feel like it. Not when it needs to be done.

I know it sounds lame but I cook and clean/organize as a Hobby.
I feel like a lot of Hobbies are not productive, expensive and generally a waste of time unless its
some sort of Sport.

@Wallflow3r I hate cooking bc it stresses me out. And whenever I clean or organize my brain keeps thinking "I cando better than this" so I never feel satisfied.

I like to bale,but don't mike eating what I make, even if it is delicious, so I end up throwing away most of the goods bc I don't know enough people to give it all away.

I appreciate the suggestions though.
