why am I so bored?

Is it because it’s cold out?

Is it because I’m tired?

Is it because I’m still dealing with withdrawals of having been a mommy to Drea?

Is it because I was sick for 3 weeks?

Is it because I got in a restless funk from lack of exercise due to being too sick to workout and now I can’t get back to the gym?

I have ZERO motivation to do anything.

I don’t feel like I’ve been getting out much, but I also don’t feel like I’ve been cooped up in my house. It’s a strange feeling but I feel rather apathetic.

I know what my problem might be–I have no problems! I’m sitting here typing on my computer wondering why I’m introverted, withdrawn or apathetic when the reality is–NOTHING IS WRONG. Maybe it’s just that I was sick and tired. Mabye I just needed some rest. I’m not cooped up indoors and I do go out. My perspective is askew and I think things are tiresome or boring because I HAVE NO DRAMA in my life. No bad relationships, no long distance boy-with-kid drama, no stress at work (in fact, I’m back to my work-loving long hours and workaholic ways!)…  I’m  not hanging out with a mad number of people or having wild adventures so is THAT why I am strange and feeling like a recluse?

Since childhood, I’ve been conditioned to exist in chaos. Horribly abusive father, a house with 9 people sharing 2 bathrooms and fighting over the remote (god, imagine if we had to fight over a computer–only me and my dos programming bro would fight over that)… what else? my family was steeped in chaos and instability. after the divorce   my mom lived off of 200 dollars month to month… i figured that out one day while overlooking (and finally understanding) her checkbook balance. After that day, I never asked for dance lessons.

Anywho, for the longest time I surrounded myself with drama–hence my overdoing it with drinking, the fag-haging, and the you-name-it-addictions.

I take on more than I can handle and I rise to the challenge and drama. For once I can concentrate on myself and it is strange to have calm and quiet. I’ll see if I can enjoy and sustain it… eeks! sooo weird.

No more chaos:

If you’ve lost a child, believe me that ur not alone in the pain. stay strong

  2. Amy Says:

    What a refreshing blog. Thank you for your honesty. I grew up with a similar background (divorce, mom had little to spend), and I’m used to drama, drama, drama. But the cold does make me a little lethargic.

  3. AnJiE Says:

  7. remy Says:

    so transparent with your feelings and i like your honesty…you must learn to admit on your mistakes because it would make you realize and learn from your misleads. but mind you that nothing of any material matter could make a person’s life happy…as for me, i may lay down and bleed awhile, but i shall rise and fight again!

  29. Candy Says:

    i can sooooo relate with you…i’ve been on the same “state” for quite some time now….just bored…bored….BORED!!!also about having “zero” motivation to do anything,too!it’s really driving me nuts….asking myself why…what’s the reason!???i have 3 kids (16,14 and 9) who practically behave well most of the time….a loving and very patient husband….but maybe,i just miss the drama!guess i’m bored with “stillness”……
    btw,we also have the same family background….only on my part,the mother is the horribly abusive one and when they got separated (since no divorce in the Phils.),me and my siblings had to live with her….aaaargh!(coz i’m the eldest of 6).but it’s been ages and i already got over it (still hate her though).
    anyhow,i already came with the conclusion that maybe my problem is that bec. “i have no problem” even before i saw your “piece”….it didn’t make sense then,but it is now!thank’s for sharing……tc!

  30. EdwinMayet Says:

  35. Debbie Says:

  36. yuko Says:

    haha.. a couple of months ago i had almost exactly the same problems as yours… no problems, no drama, and bored to death. and I would ask myself “what the f%$CK I’m doing here?” But now that I’m so freakin busy I find those boring days like a trip to hawaii.

  37. Michelle Says:

    i also get bored sometimes….doing the same thing over and over again but then when i see and count my blessings i realize im more blessed and should have nothing to complain about coz others have more tragic life than us… be strong and always smile

  38. John Says:

    You are bored because you are your bored self. Don´t judge it or ask why it is what it is. Then you are only running away from it. Learn to enjoy your boredom. Be creative with your boredom.

  39. mayAnn Says:

    i do get the same feeling as you sometimes…when there’s nothing really wrong but at the same time, you are being bored…maybe we are just looking for an adventure, a change, because we are too tired of the same pattern of life…hey cheer up! you are not alone…think positive all the time!

  40. wafa Says:

    Just think about ur life, and you’ll see how beautiful it is.

  41. Tom Says:

    I’m not sure if this applies to you but living in this world can sometimes feel like you are trapped in a house of mirrors. There is so much media hipe about the right way to live that the TRUE way for you can get lost. It could be right in front of you but you can’t see it. We are lost without a direction that we are passionate about. I recently was given a book called the “SECRET” which gave me back the vision to create my TRUE direction. I’m not trying to sell you anything. This has helped get back my selfesteem and the power over myself and therfore the power over my environment. Try it.

  42. belle Says:

    Boredom!!! I got the feeling that there’s this emptiness in your heart that is why you are bored. Did you ever try soul searching? You will find that there is an empty space in your heart that no one else can fill it. Only Jesus!

  43. belle Says:

    Boredom!!! I got the feeling that there’s this emptiness in your heart that is why you are bored. Did you ever try soul searching?

  46. Joe Says:

    It is the nature of this life that people will suffer from worries and stress, because this world is the place of disease, hardship and suffering. Hence among the things that distinguish Pardiese from this world is the fact that there is no worry or stress there: “No sense of fatigue shall touch them, nor shall they (ever) be asked to leave” [Al-Hijr 15:48] Nothing upsets the people of Paradise, not even the slightest word: “No laghw (dirty, false, evil vain talk) will they hear therein, nor any sinful speech (like backbitting, etc.), but only the saying of Salaam! Salaam! (greetings with peace).” [al-Waaqia'ah 56:25-26].

    It is also the nature of this life that people have to put up with suffering and hardship for various reasons, as is indicated in the Qur’aan: “Verily, We have created man in toil.” [al-Balad 90:4]. So people feel regret for what has happened in the past, anxious about what may happen in the future, and worried abuot what is going on in the present.

    The things that cross our minds and make us feel distressed are things in the past that have caused grief, things in the future that we are worring about, and things in the present which concerns us.

    People react differently to stress and worries, depending on how many things are concerning them, whether they have faith in their hearts or are refellious and sinful. We may describe people’s hearts as being of two types; either the heart is the throne of Allah, filled with light, life, happiness, joy and all the treasures of goodness; or it is the throne of Shaytaan wherein is distress, darkness, death, grief, worry and anxiety.

    People’s worries and concerns will also differ, according to the differences in their motivations, circumstances and individual responsibilities.

    One type of worry or concern is that which may be described as worthwhile worries that are a good sign, such as the concern of the Muslim leader about the problems of the people under his care.

  67. Elbert Says:

    I think it is all becoz of you. You bore yourself. You hide yourself away. If you wanna have some thrill in your life, get out of your shell and face the music outside. And if you really can’t take the world outside then go back and live your boring life again and never complain anymore.

  77. josefa Says:

    hi! the main reason why it feels boring is that you think alot of what tommorow will bring to your family, stop thinking about them and have a long weekend with your kid and let God be your leader in life .
    becoz with God everything is possible.God love you always and cheer up becoz i care.

    GOD BLESS…..LOVE ALWAYS.

    Cheers, Mimay

  81. andre Says:

    well,
    i have read which u have written about u. it is nice that u r open to express urself. what i feel about ur case is that u r stuck to position in which human mind cannot accept that everything around me is fine. it seems scary to mind that why everything is good. u feel comfortable in messed up situations. these things came out from human being when they have just pass from some shock.. u just relax. be aware of the fact which i have told to u..
    ( mind u i m not rookie, i m professional)
    enjoy !!!!!!!!!!!!

  82. roms Says:

    you are bored because you allow your mind to think, act, and feel that you’re bored. change your way of thinking. tell youself, as oftentimes as possible in your waking hours, i love life, i’m full of enthusiasm, i have a lot of energy, i’m happy, etc. there are plenty of enjoyable activities to engage in. look around. also try to be close to God. maybe you can attend a nice Christian Church; participate actively in their praise & workship; join their classes about good christian life; join their fellowship, bible study, bible reading, & be a member of one of their church ministries. anyway these are suggestions only. decide for yourself. –roms
