Is it normal to feel this bored?

It’s hard to explain, but it’s not like a boredom where it’s like “eh, I’m bored.” It’s like nothing is fun anymore. Nothing. All the things I like to do, for the time being, are just so tiring now. It could be due to the fact that I spend most of my time alone, my family members are barely ever home, and I don’t have a job and haven’t started college yet (despite having graduated high school over a year ago). I mostly play on my phone or read, and sometimes it’s enjoyable, but it’s like I’ve been doing the exact same thing so many times. I’m not suicidal, but I seriously sometimes wonder if one day I’ll kill myself simply because I’m JUST. SO. BORED. It wouldn’t be out of being depressed, just finding nothing worth doing anymore simply because I see no point to it. I worry that I’ll literally drive myself mad through all this repitition! Can someone please suggest something!?

    Idk if it's normal. Sometimes the disinterest in things you used to find enjoyable can be caused by depression. But if you really think you don't have depression and that this is driving you crazy maybe you should talk to a professional. Or maybe even just go to college and/or going out more could help. Do something different. I've felt that bored before and it sucks really bad. There's this song I like that even talks about that sort of pure boredom called "Boring" by The Brobecks (which all their music is amazing from what I've listened to). But back to the point. If it's really bothering you do something about it you know.
