Why do I feel bored all the time?

Question

I feel bored at work... at home... at school (it hasn't started yet, but I know it will be boring)... And as a result, I find myself doing impulsive and reckless things in attempt to cure my own boredom, like stealing, and other stupid dares.

Obviously what I'm doing is dumb, but I'm so bored, I kind of don't care. So... How do I stop my behaviour? I feel terrible because I'm considered a role model, and I feel weird asking this Q here b/c I think most users who've seen me don't see me as a bad kid or anything, but yeah. I'm acting different and it's stupid and I don't know what to do. I almost took a handful of nails today because I was that bored.

Lol.

Answer 1

Try getting a hobby, you could get into maybe painting or something like that so when your bored you have something to do

Answer 2

you should probably go to a psychologist.

i feel ridiculously bored and/or depressed all the time, and i take meds for it. soon i'm going to see a therapist.

the doctors often have good suggestions, so give it a try.

Answer 3

usally when ur bored all the time ur jus ready to try something new and different. jus step outside of ur box and do something different and u might enjoy, but make sure its legal!

Answer 4

Maybe your already in a depression. Constant boredom can be a symptom of that. Does all that stealing, or reckless behaviour help you at all? If your not already in a depression then it might be sort of what my sister went through last year. She just felt like she was tired of everything. Like everything was exactly the same no changes just boring, She didn't try to create her own fun in a bad way, She created her own fun in a good way. No matter what she was doing that days she always set aside one hour to do what she wanted, nothing that she does everyday Whether it would be shopping or running into sprinklers or whatever it always changed up her routine. Try it. I hope this helps. (Best I can offer)

Try doing GOOD things, I suppose.  Or maybe hang out with your friends.  The GOOD friends, that is.

Answer 7

I go for walks when things get so boring to the point where I want to throw up. I also read, call friends, or listen to music.

Answer 8

watch teli. or. go on the computer.  

Answer 9

when i'm bored at school i get up and walk to the pencil sharpener, or get a tissue. if that doesn't work i ask if i am allowed to go to the bathroom. the stretching really helps, and simply moving can refresh/ stimulate you.
