my entire life i have never been able to take naps, nor did i ever want to. since i've started taking antipsychotics it has very seriously disrupted my sleep schedule and made taking naps necessary, if not inevitable. i'm trying to learn to enjoy them

it actually isn't that bad!
for a recent assignment i had to go out and draw people in public - just simple gesture drawings, nothing major. and kept forgetting to bring my earbuds at first. i'd get frustrated, yeah, but not enough to go back in and grab them. so i dealt with the silence, and it actually wasn't that bad at all? i mean, i was going to cafes a lot so that helped, but also libraries? places specifically meant to be quiet? and it was great, to the point where i purposefully left my earbuds at home to finish my assignment today.
consider: going places without your earbuds/headphones on purpose

seriously, if you haven't gone to your local library yet, you're missing out! i try to go every couple of weeks to return books and get more. while i love owning my own books as well, borrowing them from the library is great as well! not to mention what they do for ur local community, the resources they have, etc. all of this to say: go visit your local library!!!

seriously! like put on some background music and just sit there with your thoughts. see what comes up. draw weird doodles, make a world for them, sing to them, whatever. just be weird and bored.
to go directly against what i just said, i have a small pocket notebook i collect quotes/thoughts/jokes/poems/etc that i enjoy, and i go through it sometimes instead of scrolling. it takes a little time to get it to a point where it's useable like that, but it's worth it! bonus points if you print photos out and put them in too, make it like an inspiration notebook.
