To feel life is boring for the average person?

[LondonCallingwoamdnjd]

I'm mid 20s and life just seems so boring.
I feel I peaked at 18 when I was constantly socialising and on night outs. Life seemed exciting.

Whereas now, I'm usually the same routine - work, come home, socialise with my friend every so often , boyfriend works away so see him every 2 months for 1 month straight.

When he's home, I love life as even cuddled up watching movies seem fun.
When he's away, I just feel so bored.
I exercise, watch movies, do my masters which is online, go for coffee sometimes, shopping

On Sunday I'm going for a meal with friends but even now I'm thinking "what's the point?"

I just feel so bored.

And I'm feeling jealous of rich people. People who can just jet away to somewhere else when they're feeling bored or low.

Am I depressed? I don't know. I can only describe the feeling of constant boredom and I don't know how to stop it.

You might be depressed. Have you done the NHS assessment to see what it says? It’s called a PHQ9.

Personally I think it’s unreasonable to expect to be actively happy all the time, life isn’t always an easy process even in a privileged country such as the UK. If you’re content most of the time I think you’re doing good. But to feel so bored and to be lacking in anything that really gets your heart pumping and euphoria flowing sounds miserable. Is there really nothing that you can truly say you love doing and that brings you immense joy?

Could it be that you’re just not suited to a partial long distance relationship? Lots of people wouldn’t be happy only spending half of their life with their partner.

I thought this at first, but then the feelings of boredom could worsen if the OP saw her partner more often - at least there's a certain novelty factor at play currently!
OP, I do know what you mean. I'm at my happiest when on holiday abroad, and I'm already very excited for next year's fingers crossed However that's not exactly something you can do every week
I honestly think that some of us deal with the daily grind and tedium better than others.
