Overwhelmed with hobbies?

Does anyone else have so many hobbies/activities they enjoy they get overwhelmed with which one to indulge in? Like on one hand I want to draw, on the other I want to get through a book, on one foot I want to learn how to speedrun pokemon violet, on the other foot I want to watch something... it's just all so overwhelming! Does anyone else experience this?

It never happens to me. I always have something I'm interested in, but after a certain time (3 days, a week, three weeks or whatever) I get bored and move on to something else. The last 4 days it's Morse code, but it shouldn't last long. If I have several things I want to do in a day, I just choose the one I feel most like doing. I also have some fixed interests, like anime or AI, but they don't take up much time in my day.

I have a solution for that. I find a game and get addicted for a while and only play that.
Then at some point I just stop and have to find another one.

Perhaps if you can fix your attention span to do which one first - or simply split them into hours of learning it in each day, you can reduce getting overwhelmed.

So long as you able to pursue them accordingly.

There is not enough time in the day to pursue all my interests.

my new hobbie has been gambling, not healthy for the bank but fun for the brain

Not really healthy for the brain too.

I have a bunch of stuff I want to try or get into, but really I either don't have the room or energy for them.
That being said, hobbies you can do with others do help get you invested
