I certainly do. Life is so boring and everything costs so much these days. I end up staying in watching TV or reading most of my life. Boring life eh.

Yes life is so boring. I go to work and sit in the same queue of traffic daily, visit people , fill out the same forms, ask people the same questions, offer the same sympathy when they get distressed even using the same phrases. Five days a week this goes on. I am so bored. At weekends I do the same dog walks and watch the same TV programmes. I often just think there must be more to life but really you just work to pay for stuff you need, there is no way of getting off that treadmill. It is depressing. I am 57, not easy to change jobs or find anything new although I am trying. I'm sorry you feel similar op.

Yes constantly. I feel like every day is just trying to fulfil all my responsibilities in life and very very little enjoyment or fun. I can honestly say I've had one evening this entire year so far that I've enjoyed myself. One evening out of 2 months is really shitty. My family are having a hard time the last 12 months and I don't know when that will end.

Definitely. I don't even get the point of this existence. I'm just waiting for it to end
