I feel like the truest forms of self expression have to come from things you find a genuine interest in. A lot of the time people express themselves through a creative outlet like fashion, scrapbooking, coloring (my personal favorite hehe), design, etc. I think it’s important to acknowledge what you’re passionate about and engage in it in whatever form that may take. It may also help to explore all kinds of hobbies, just have fun with it.

Do the things that make you happy and take pride in being a part of communities of like-minded folks. It can really be anything, as long as it brings you fun and friends. What makes a hobby "real" is the connection to life that you find when doing it. Having a few hobbies that keep you active, connected, and creative will greatly improve your relationship with life.

I think in general it’s extremely important that everyone has a hobby, or at least something fun to do outside of work. Artists I’m talking to you too, because if your job is music or visual art, I think you should have something totally unrelated to that to do in your free time. For example, I've been working on a painting for my brother’s boss in my free time, and I’ve also been knitting a scarf! It doesn’t have to be anything crazy and definitely not profitable, but it really helps with separating work time from free time.

having serveral hobbies & simply bc they're fun and make you happy instead of hyperfixating so you know every detail to keep in ur back pocket to feel a sense of reassurance about how much you've invested in them (ive fallen victim to this).
you're allowed to enjoy something with minimal knowledge on it. with time you'll realize you've accumulated so much personalized information. deets that correlate to you. thats what make your hobbies special and gratifying like they were intended to be. continue to explore and learn!
