Anyone else tired of living? (Not emo, title miss-leading)

for like a year and i half i was so bored with life i just stopped caring. i started failing all my classes because they were just so fukken boring. then i decided to go after a girl and i cleaned up my act. find something to aim at. but believe me i know how you feel

Me'h pretty much feel like that everyday. Not that i'm thinking about killing myself but I find real life quite booring >_>.

I go to school, go home an mainly sits infront of the computer watching anime / playing games waiting for something exciting to come into my life :roll:

I'm not bored at all =D

Sometimes I are but that's usually during when I'm waiting for the goddamn clock to finish ticking for me to do stuff.

[size=10]While I am not bored with life and don't consider myself depressed, I'm also relatively tired of living. If I could vanish and avoid the trouobles of life, the ones that come with age, I would. Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, I'm too caring a person and won't allow myself to just commit suicide. It'd cause problems for those I leave behind. Financial and perhaps emotional. No, emotional, and perhaps financial.[/h]

Sometimes I do feel extremely bored but it's not enough for wanting me to kill myself. Instead, I just sleep.

Man, you are a depressing guy.


Anyway, I don't see what the big deal is, everyone's life is boring. Life sucks, and there isn't any point to it.
I'm bored a lot, too, but if it bothered me THAT bad, I'd do something about it. If you have a future you don't want to fuck up by doing something interesting, then work towards that future to keep yourself occupied. Most people need goals in life so that they don't have to admit to how pointless life is.

as long as i can go to fakku, i won't be bored.

Yeah, I tend to get bored, too. But if you have something to aim at, you'll be just fine.

Sounds like someone's ready for the red pill xD

@Dante1214: Lol, I can be. Anyway, yeah. Goals help a lot. Supporting loved ones and those in need makes me feel pretty good. So life is alright... not soo bad.

It's possible that you are my opposite as a human being...

Anyway, I offer up the fallowing:


Note: I used the Wanted video one because the actual video is boring and stupid.

[size=10]@DantePerhaps, to some extent, I am the opposite of you. Anyway, many thanks for your offering. I watched the wanted video that you posted and then I decided to check out the actual video on youtube. I'm not sure why, but at first I liked the original better.... then it became too repetitive. Haha, I guess that makes sense though, seeing how every day is the same. But despite what video was shown, the song ((which would obviously stay the same)) was pretty cool. Anyway, again, thank you.

I'd rep you for the offering, but can't right now. Tomorrow, I will.

I never get bored because there are too many things to do. At times, I don't feel like doing anything, and that sucks, but I'm never completely clueless as to what I would like to do. I'll just think, "There's manga to read and anime to watch, but I don't feel like sitting at the computer," so I'll have to figure out something my lazy self can do.

The thing is, I'm not an overly optimistic person. I'm not one of those who will always say that life is worth living and try to talk a guy off of a ledge. Life simply has a lot of fun things.

Right now, I have a Wordpad document that has lists of mangas that I should read and animes that I should watch. Both lists are pretty big, and it would take me forever to read all of the mangas and watch all of the animes listed. Plus, I add to the lists as time goes by. I don't think I could ever finish the lists and have nothing to do.

If you're bored, watch something, read something. There are a ton of interesting things out there. If nothing seems to interest you, it may not be life that has a problem. Of course, if you feel that you are just wasting time, then watching anime may not be good, since that's not necessarily a useful way to spend your time, but is there really any such thing as a useful way to spend your time? Life is meant to be enjoyed, and if you don't enjoy yourself, you're wasting your life. So find out what it is you enjoy doing, and do it.

Hahahaaha, when I feel like that I will play game then forget about it

I do occasionally have the thought cross my mind... but then I get bored and my mind usually goes elsewhere...

I like having fun, but I'm too lazy to care if I'm wasting time...Overall, I just move through life, letting it pass me by as much as it wants, just giving it the occasional wave...

Your attitude on life seems somewhat strange to me. On one hand you recognize that life if pointless, and life sucks. On the other you are somehow optimistic about your future, and so you look forward to it in the hopes that things will someday be better than they are.

The first view is hard realism. The second is like blind optimism - so the two are sort of at conflict. I said your attitude seems strange to me though, because you make it sound like you are extremely enthusiastic about your future. You make it sound like you have something you truly enjoy to look forward to. But my intuition tells me that if that were actually true, then you would be less depressed about the present - because you would have real concrete goals that you are working towards and have faith in.

So then it makes me think that either you don't really have absolute faith in this future of yours, or you are just playing up how shitty life is. Since you are posting about how shitty life is, and not about the future, I'm going to assume that you don't really have faith in your future (even if you didn't say so in your post). As a rule, finding meaning in your life doesn't require you to be honest with yourself, but if you are going to incorporate realism as part of your belief structure I think you need to be. It would be bad to place all your hopes on a future that you know in inside you were never sure about.

I don't mean to advise you to change that future though, if you think you could enjoy it then it is something to work towards still. But unless you have absolute faith in something, you should never put all of your hopes on it either. Perhaps the best advice I have for you would be to develop some short term goals as well - they don't even have to be things that work towards your future, they could be as simple as going out with your friends more. If all else fails, get a girlfriend.
