Bywena,

Have you tried Zentangling? I don't know if you like to draw, but it's actually a good type of Therapy as it uses different lobes of the brain, depending on whether you do it in "black/white" or "color". I enjoy it because it's random patterns that you create yourself and it's not "pictures" per se. You can get lost in it for quite a while when you get into it.

Might google it and see if its something you might want to check out.
