Bored

---

Well, my problem is that I hae no motivation. I know what I want to do, I know what I have to do to get there and I have people telling me 24/7 to do it all. But nothing, I just never do anything, even when I tell myself I'm gonna do something, I don't.

Make a list of a few things, pin it up and tick em of when you have done em..............after i have ticked a couple off it always makes me feel a little better about stuff............

I tried that before but I just ended up with a list of stuff with no ticks. None of the stuff seems in any way apealing to me, so my mind sends it to the back of the line, even behind doing nothing and staring blankly into space. I am a massive time waster.

things don't have to 'appeal' to you, they need doing, end of story! There is no excuse for not getting of your arse and at least getting one thing done per day. Have you thought that your lack of motivation etc could be due to depression? Just a thought.

Yeah, Ineligible mentioned that before, but I don't if it is. From what people have described as being depressed its all sorta constantly feeling down, world is too hard kinda stuff. I dunno, maybe you could correct me on that, but that isn't really me. Sure, I feel like that sometimes, but then later I can be a very active person, non stop talker and chatter, jokes flying everywhere. But then, like a light switch, I can just turn off.

Sorry if I'm showing great ignorance as to what depression is.

hmmmm not sure about the depression.........maybe its worth seeing your GP anyway see what they say. Other than that young man you have to pull yourself together, and just make yourself do stuff, whether you wanna or not...............maybe tidying up all the lists you have made might be a start LOL hug

I feel it's wrong to end your life and put that much strain on your friend's and family's life just because you feel your life is uneventful.

Bob, could you change your pic? Why did you change it to a naked man (or was it like this before, I never could see it until now).

I don't see any pic at all, but i always thought the family guy pic was a good pic to have on there, but i don'y anything on there now....

I had the family guy for ages, then took it away for the past couple of months, then today I had a naked old man for about an hour, then got rid of it cause Amanda asked me to. I thought it was funny, I stole it from some nudist forum and that was some guys avatar. Anyway, I don't think its depression, not fully anyway. I'm gonna go more for Ineligible's original suggestion (Christmas last year) that I may suffer from cyclothimia. I've read up on it a lot and nearly all the symptoms fit, except a few of them I have are milder than in the official dignosis stuff. Like, I don't stay down for a week, I'm down for a few hours, then up for maybe an hour, then down again.Oh no, I sstayed on topic... and in my own thread!! I disgust myself!

Yea, now it's out turn to get off topic lol (as we did with the avatar stuff) I'm keeping my avatar the same for prolly forever....just so the new people and the people whove been here for awhile will know who it is...but i hope u get to feeling better soon!

What kinda hijacking is that? You were going off topic and everything was good, but then you went straight back! Come on! You can do better than that!

I think bob is experiencing something similar to me. We have done a lot for being so young. I know that I am continually dissapointed with all of the people I am there for and all the good things I do...Even at work, I take the intiative to do things and I get some gratitude but that is all I ever see. Bob I know how you feel it is this sheet of "boredom" that just gets to you. You can feel good, but it seems to always be over you.

sorry hon but back to the avatar, is there one, if so what is it, and if there is one why can't i see it pout I always saw the family guy one................bugger!!!

No, there is no avatar at the moment. I'm not realy an avatar kinda guy.

Walken: Thats kinda how I feel yeah, except its not just the people around me that are dissapointments, its life in general. Nothing is as god as people make it out yo be. Its all boring. What excites others just doesn't effect me.

i find my life uneventful and boring too, to be honest im just waiting to finish school and get out of here and hopefully do some travelling bcos i just need to get out, i think school is the thing that annoys me most, bcos theres not that many people i can relate to, life starts when you leave school? lol

I thought life ended after school. I don't think I'd make it in the "real world". Too much responsibility.

That's what everyone thinks, but not that many mentally intact people wind up living on the street.

Well, who says I'm mentally intact?

Unless you're really crazy and a really good BSer, I don't think it'll be undoable. You seem pretty nomal. Just get a job, place to live, etc....one step at a time. Then it's forty years of metro, boulot, dodo, as the French say. Or at least that's what the ones who work say.
