Help! So bored and fed up right now.

[Mojitofairy]

Normally I’m a busy and cheerful sort of person, happy with my own company or with friends, happy to get jobs done at home, run around after the kids, chill out.

It all feels a bit shit and I don’t think it’s lockdown or anything like that.

I normally love to knit but can’t be bothered.
Ditto for reading, running, puzzles with the kids.
Just can’t find anything that I want to do.
It’s been like this for about a week and I’m so fed up.
Any jobs that need to be done are done, it’s just the extra few hours of an evening that I seem to drift through and waste messing online.

Any ideas to bring my mojo back?

Listen to podcasts
Put on music and dance
Yoga with Adrienne
Chloe ting or madfit exercise classes
Online study
Cooking - bread, desserts, soups

Hello,

I have found I've been feeling like this lately and can't seem to get myself out of the funk. One thing a relative suggested to me was a long walk with headphones in (I'm too anxious for the headphones myself) and to focus on listening to surroundings rather than our thoughts.

Do something out of the norm, do something you'd usually find crazy. Be spontaneous. Come out your comfort zone for a bit.

Hope this helps.

Hi OP, I totally understand. I got up at 5am to let the cat out and this black cloud just descended on me, I’ve been depressed in the past but this was nothing like I’d experienced. And it’s not lockdown. I spent hours crying then went back to bed at 2pm just for something to do that wasn’t being miserable. Back up an hour ago but still feel just utterly sad. Had my second covid vax on Saturday so wondering if sudden low mood is related. Hope you feel better soon

Pretty bored with life right now too!
It's my birthday coming up too - and I've made some low key plans - just dinners with friends / family - which I know is great and this time 4 months ago thay wasn't possible.
But I just feel unless I sort something then I'm doing nothing - and I'm bored of always having to be the one to sort stuff - 9now lying by my youngest on my bed - bored, flicking through social media and news
