Is it normal to have such extreme boredom?

I'm a 19 year old girl, I live at home with my family and the only real friends I have are that which are imaginary. It's the summer holidays which is good because I hate college and being forced to get up at ridiculous times and socialize with no escape. But at the moment I am just stuck in the house with my family and they hate me anyway. I am incompetent so can't get a job and have no motivation to get a job anyway. I lack the motivation to do anything. I am slowly going insane. I go to the park to listen to music but now that's out of the question because my earphones have broken and my mum's aren't very good quality, so the one thing that brought me joy is gone. I mainly just sit on the internet all day which is depressing, or eat, I'll do anything to get rid of boredom but there is nothing I can do to make it go away. My mum and sister are even going to a party on sunday and are leaving me behind, which is making me feel like if I can't get out of this fucking house I'm going to tear my hair out. I sometimes hurt myself just to feel something. I want to get out of this little village, out of this house and do something, anything. And I don't want to do any clubs because it's a set days that you have to do them which also makes me feel restricted. I also suffer from depression. I have dreams and hopes which I really want to fulfill but I've lost motivation to do anything about them because I feel they will never come true. All hope of them happening for me is gone.

  • Your situation sounds shockingly similar to mine. I'm 19 years old, attend college, live with my mother, quit my part time job a few months ago, and literally have 0 friends on this entire planet. I spend my free time browsing the internet, listening to music, reading, and masturbating. I expected life to be more exciting than this... Introverted and socially anxious people are destined to live unfulfilling lives. That's all there is to it.

    Therapy will do you way more good than any few lines of advice on the internet.
    You could try to set up some sessions yourself, or confide in your most trusted family member to help you out with it.

    In this situation, everything starts with you. You have to make the decision to reach out to a therapist, to work toward your dreams, or apply for a job. Whether that decision be tomorrow, or 5 years from now, rests entirely on your shoulders. Just know that after you do it, you will feel a lot better about your life and your future.

    It's normal to be bored. What's not normal is having an imaginary friend at 19. Why not go on social media and chat with actual people? Or play an online game?

    • I do, but even those aren't as fulfilling. Besides, imaginary friends can be whoever you want them to be, and you can control them. Real people let you down.

        Cynicism is an early sign of depression. Might wanna seek therapy.

    Life is what you make of it no one can make you happy except you. If you can't go anywhere you could stay home and exercise.
