Go out and do something

Go somewhere you haven’t been yet.

Go places where there are other humans.

Go find a hobby you like and join a club.

Talk to people

Start practicing kyokushin.karate. most modest and humble people you can find who train hard to find peace

Go to a bar, talk to a stranger. Do it again. And agait. You’ll learn, it’ll become easier

Just do something, anything. Go out, meet people.

That is your cure

Unironically, be bored more. If you are so tweaked out by the constant stimulation of modern life that even the deluge of content can’t suffice, your brain has been broken. Meditate. Read. Listen to the sound of your breath. You will want to do something else. Do not do something else. Teach your brain to live at the speed of life.

Find hobbies to help get you excited about things and less bored. If nothing appeals to you, you might have clinical depression

Bored no. Everything being trumped up and not looking like it will get better. Yes.

My cure is to try new hobbies/activities. Especially ones that require your complete focus. Like Motorsports. Personally I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to singing in front of people, resulting in everything else disappearing during the vocal lessons I for some reason signed up for.

It used to make me sad that I couldn’t hold a single hobby, but I guess I’m just not built for it. Trying different ones as often as needed is more up my alley

I felt this when I was struggling with depression. I recommend seeking help for that.

No. I have effectively defeated boredom.

Never in history has the average person (caveat: I live in a developed nation) had access to so many varied hobbies and forms of entertainment.

A more significant struggle is finding meaning. I have succeeded there too, but it is more of a challenge.

Most days yeah, I’m 23 and struggling most of the time with how boring life is to me, I got hobbies that I never have the energy to do and new experiences just seem too much of an effort to try them out.

I have a deeply rooted romantization of death too so that definitely doesn’t help

You need hobbies

I have ADHD so boredom is like death anyway

In my 20s? Drugs, alcohol, and live punk shows

Now in my 30s, 8 hours of sleep every night, staying physically active everyday, getting plenty of sun, always have something to look forward to(cooking on the weekend, taking a day trip just to explore, spending a whole day at home with my phone turned off messing around with blender, unity, or just writing code), enjoy the small things like reading a couple pages of a book I like every evening

Drugs and alcohol, and music.

That’s just ADHD

It could be so many things, so hard to give advice. For me, a big part of it was sleep related, and I could only fix it with medication; if you have adhd it may be similar. The medical issues gave me the feeling of I’m painfully bored but my body refuses to do/enjoy anything, and I just want the sweet release of death deep sleep.

On the other hand, I was also so used to delaying gratification for school/work that I literally didn’t know how to enjoy myself. I think finding the little things that bring you joy and incorporating it into your daily/ weekly/ monthly routine helps a lot. Something like: on Sundays I get to eat pizza or if I reach my short-term goal/milestone, I’ll take myself to the cool place I never get to go to. I started doing this after getting a dog. So literally train yourself to love life like a dog.
