Have you ever felt like you're wasting your time?

i'm 19 and someone might think that i've got an interesting life, full of fun and bullshits...well you will be disappointed!
my life is very boring...i spend the whole day at home, watching tv and surfing on internet. sometimes i steal my mum's car for a ride with my friends but she works , so she needs her car.i seldom borrow it! i went to a disco twice in my life and i've never gotten drunk!
i've never gone camping or on holiday with my friends...i know i should take the first step but it's not easy!! i feel like i'm not living to the fullest...and when i get this feeling, i could shoot myself cuz it's not worth living

yes i know exactly how it feels 205
no, my life has never been boring 16
i'm lucky cuz my friends always involve me in their bullshits 9
i got used to boredom 40

    I don't get bored almost anytime. I distract myself really easly.

    I think the last time I got bored was monthes ago when I was going to m*st*rb*t* and then lost my will because of love/hate matters.

    I don't like to watch tv. When I don't have nothing to do I usually listen to music if I have my computer or just think about things.

    Travel; especially to places that are out of your ordinary comfort zone.

    Get a job, I did and you will have to eventually. What are you good at what do enjoy just stop siting on you but a be active, if you've been out all day then life never feels boring.

    Does it really matter what you end up doing? Either way everything is a waste of time because it won't matter when you're dead.

    Try to look for work if you can, and figure out what your interests are. Be that: writing poetry, running a marathon, cycling, learning to play a guitar or swimming. If you're not sure, just do it! I'm 20 years old right now and live on my own...sort of because I live in a rooming house. That essentially means I live in a house and rent a room of that house because renting a full apartment is too expensive for me right now.
    There was a saying that Vince Mcmahon said once in the WWE and that was"Life sucks, and then you die!", a sad statement but true at times. Anyways don't get too down on yourself, I'll listen.

  • You have desires and ambitions, just like everyone else. This feeling of emptiness will persist until you fulfill your dreams.

    God i feel like this all the time man.
    seems like everyone i know doesnt care if i turned into a soulless hermit sometimes as well... theres not much you can do except use the spare time you have to do something constructive... or just do some things extra / beneficial to yourself instead of being a slob... join some clubs, meet more people and make an effort... youl find some like minded people and get less bored eventually but dont expect anything to immediately get interesting :D

    Here's the way I see it. If you enjoy "wasting time" your not wasting time. If you enjoy doing something, but someone says it's a waste of time, don't do it. It's your life. Do what you want

    Well, of course, travelling is nice etc. But i think this whole "travel & you'll find Truth/and Sense in your Life"-Thing is just overromanticized and naive bullshit.
    Had and soemtimes still have this Feeling thAt my Life is boring/sensless. But i think we're all under a constant preAssure to live Life to the 'fullest' extent, but we forget that this preassure is in the end only created by ourselves, our Zeitgeist, the medias, the economy, our fast-living globalisized and individualized Society.
    And Yeah, our existence is sensless. Its absurd. (See also: Albert Camus). And so what? I think its Even more sensless and absurd to Carry this burden of 'Not knowing Why' everything and everyone is the Way it is. We're just Not meant to Know.
    And yep, if you got the Feeling that Your Life is boring and crap, then just try to concentrate on what interests you and put your Energy into that! (instead of complaining with a passive Attitude) and learn to appreciate and enjoy consciously 'boredom
