I kinda feel like I escape from my own life sometimes

Escaping the routine part of our life is exactly the reason we do certain activities.

{@gaila] they are good things are hobbies and distractions as they are relaxing . they are a sort of a release if you will too every day stress

I do the same, I think being a parent, you have to have your own little life on the side so you still feel like an individual.

Maybe it's just escaping the boring and unpleasant parts

You need to do this to stay sane. I do this all the time. I background process while I work on hobbies. Relaxes me.

People are disillusioned, so they project themselves out into other things.

It's arguable how much music applies, because to me, music is very much a reality, as it's a side hustle that I really enjoy.

What hobbies? What distractions?

Escape is good..🙂
