Is it normal normal i get bored by things i like doing?

Everything I do bores me to tears. I used to enjoy many things but now I can't appreciate anything.

Is it my attention span? Do I just get over things quickly? I can't even begin to think about what I will do as an adult because there is nothing I like doing.

The only things I like doing anymore are hanging out with someone in real life, which is unproductive, I'm not able to do things I like because of the repetitiveness of any task, it's like I am not happy unless I am always doing something different, and I'm scared that's going to affect me long term.

It isn't just "bored with", it's like "I am so sick of this I'm never going to enjoy it again".

    I think part of it is we're just so overstimulated and have so much entertainment at our fingertips that we're spoiled and get bored easily. I mean I will watch a football game on mute with music on in the background while playing with my phone and talking to friends.

    Somepeople are just restless too though. I have a friend that will never let a song finish; is constantly changing the song when shes driving and and I'm like, "wtf that was a good song" and I miss the closure of it properly ending. She also wants to bar hop when we go out or suddenly wants to go home. Then go out again. So yeah it's definitely normal this day and age to varying degrees.

      It's thankfully a very easy solution and the best part is it's practical you can do it whenever you want for as long as you want and I promise you it helps immensely.. meditation

    I believe that you will be happy again. It is not unproductive to hang out with people in my opinion. I never do anything worth anything, but I wish that I had someone to hang out with. Nothing ever works out. I can do almost anything though. Sometimes it is movies, but music is the best and the thing that you need more than anything.

    I'm doing this a lot too. Every time we start a new series I'm bored within a day or so and don't want to watch anymore. Apparently this is very annoying.
