Bored !!!!!

[mausland1981]

For the past few weeks and even months i felt kind of bored.I just feel miserable about my life's situation although i'm still lucky to live , have time to do something i want , can even ride the ride but still there's a lack within me.
For the last 2 years and a half i've been jobless, i still live with my parents.I've got not much friends but it's okey i still got my cats to mingle with.

Sounds like time to do something completely different just to shake things up a bit-
Take a course or join up with something you would normally never do. Learn karate? Go fishing? Take a foreign language course? Buy some rollerblades? Go horseback riding? Volunteer at an animal shelter? Take a boat/rafting ride? Take up origami? Do a story hour at a nursing home? Tai chi? Learn basket making or take pottery course?

Often doing something oddball can lead to a whole new pathway in unpredictable ways. Good luck!

post-adolescent ennui strikes us all. (sometimes more than once )

I agree with Lisa: do something. Go volunteer if getting a job is out of the question. Move to another country for a while. Learn something new.

Develop coping mechanisms now, so that when you hit your next bout of ennui you can pick yourself up and dust yourself off and get over it quickly. It's just part of being human. It will pass, but if you can move it along you will have learned something important about being an adult.

I've suggested to my adult children to get a job in a foreign location, even if it means waiting tables or something like that....go to the Bahamas or the Caymans for work. Pick somewhere fabulous that you wouldn't get to see otherwise. Do it while you're young and don't have any responsibilities. It sounds like so much fun and enriching, and I wish I had thought of it when I was 18.
