I'm always bored

I'm just always bored. The older I get, the worse it gets. With everything I do, even the fun things, I don't feel like I'm fully experiencing the whole thing. It's just like I know nothing really matters and if I wouldn't do the things, it wouldn't matter either. That's why I currently do nothing... Everyday I feel like: I could do this, and this, and this, and this, but it's all equally interesting and therefore nothing really is, because nothing stands out. Only super weird adventures like suddenly meeting a stranger somewhere who says: 'i got a boat, want to cross this river to meet an old friend of mine?' and we end up picking apples with an old man who used to be in a punk band, give me the feeling like: wow, life is super weird and I want to experience everything. (I never went applepicking with an old man and a guy with a boat, this is just an example.)

Does anyone recognize this? And have you fixed it? And if yes, how? It may sound really stupid, but it's a serious problem. I'm so bored during everything I do: my jobs, my evenings out, my free times, I actually want to kill myself sometimes to stop this frustrating boredome.
