Wild how stuff like this often gets posted to !games@lemmy.world but not to here. Crossposting to try to change that.

It's very validating to see people finding things that are not "traditionally" calming as calming. Really does prove to each their own, different people are different. I always need to have a goal, but "it's the journey not the destination". I need a destination to give me a journey, and the process of getting there can be very soothing. I can intentionally choose destinations such that the path to get there will be soothing, like knitting or any video game that does not frustrate me. I am really not good at journeys with no destination in mind, even if the main point is to have a journey, I need to have some goal to pursue first (even if I create it myself… easier done in some games like Minecraft than others).

“it’s the journey not the destination”

A cliche by this point, but it is so true. :)
