Benefits of crafting

Sorry no pics with this entry. Hopefully the content will make up for that.

I have Tourette's Syndrome. Not a severe case, thank goodness, but inconvenient enough. In any case, I've noticed that when I'm working on a craft, the twitches pretty much vanish. Even better, I'm able to focus more than I usually can, due to the ADD tendencies that come bundled into the whole Tourette's package.

So the question here is, how many of you girls use craft, of whatever sort, as a form of therapy? Do you notice much improvement? And for those who don't set out to do so, has crafting given you any therapeutic benefits?
