Is it normal that i find everything boring?

I don't know if anyone else feels this way, but everything just seems so boring, nothing interests me, ever!

I mean it's not like i don't have a life, i have friends, i go out, i do things all the time. It's just, deep down i don't really give a shit about anything. I force myself to do things that i know i should enjoy, but i just don't.

Sometimes i wonder why i even bother. You see the problem is, i can't just give up, and sit around all day doing nothing and watching TV, because that's even worse.

If i do nothing, it makes me really uncomfortable, i feel like i should be doing something and i want to, it's just nothing interests me. Everything is so boring! Nothing scares me, nothing excites me, nothing seems to affect me in any way. It's so boring, i hate it!

Any suggestions, can anyone else relate to this?

    It's because you're a boring person yourself.

      You don't know that. I don't think that's fair on the OP. He/she might be suffering from depression. Reading a comment like that will not make things better, that's for sure.

    Im suprised this is getting rated to be abnormal. Life is boring when you think about it too much. Just try to fool yourself into having fun. Thats what I do everyday.

    I relate! I know what you mean, but it always goes away you know? just try to do whatever you feel like doing, and it will fade away.

    I agree with Sailor_Cosmos. What you speak of are the unequivocal signs of depression. I used to not get pleasure from doing the things that other people enjoyed like going to the beach, going out with friends, going out to dinner, going to the movies. It was because I was suffering from clinical depression. Medication and exercise and time got me better. Also, fighting back helped a lot as well because I stopped being a victim.
    You do have to force yourself to do things at the beginning but it will get easier and better.
    I'm sure there is something that you're interested in otherwise you wouldn't be able to watch TV all day. Obviously what's on TV is interests you enough to hold your attention. So there you go.
    What about music? Do you like listening to music? If so, learn a new musical instrument or pick up where you left off?
    What about food and sex?
    Get a new boyfriend/girlfriend.
    Get a new job.
    Study something different.
    Move overseas or interstate.
    Maybe all you need is change or a vacation.

    You might be suffering from depression. You should seek professional help. It is not normal to feel this way about everything.
