I personally think a lack of hobbies can have a pretty big negative impact. My ex had zero hobbies, and she was very much not enjoying life, ever. I'm not saying a+b=c but there is a certain trend there.

I've played guitar almost my whole life, never in a band, never really recording anything, but I've always known that it does something for me that is important. I tell people its a sort of therapy when I sit down and play for awhile.

Same with my other hobbies, golf, snowboarding, video games...I enjoy them all but they give me a real sense of joy, belonging, and again have a certain therapeutic value that is important to me.

Just food for thought.
