I do not watch tv, I do not like to just stand around and talk to people for hours, I dont surf the web much, and it is hard for me to do anything that I do not see meaning in. I took my girlfriend to a movie and although I enjoyed it, I was eager to get to the end because I cant stand watching movies for a long time. I guess I just hate wasteing time or waiting for stuff and can not go long without stimulation, I always have to be doinng something interactive or productive like a videogame, book, walking, excercise, music, or social interaction with someone interesting. But it has gotten to the point whr=ere I burn myself out to the point where I sometimes just stare at the wall, and often I have trouble getting out of bed. I feel very world weary.

Everyone...

Only have so much time on the planet, why waste it doing nothing... We always want to do something that stimulates us or that we find pleasure in.

One of the reasons I hate sleeping... The fact that we spend a third of out entire life sleeping makes me mad... I wish someone would find a way to replicate the repair/organizing process our brains do while sleeping during waking hours to eliminate the need for sleep... Just think about the implications of every human having their life and productivity "extended" by 50% (24 as opposed to 16 hours)...

I have the exact same problem. Being inactive drives me crazy, especially when I'm at home. If I don't have plans over the weekend (which is most weekends) I crack. Two days of sitting in the house desperately trying to find something productive to do, then sandy hit, two more days of no school, and it's only drizzling where I'm at, my sentence has been prolonged for two whole days. When I go out in to the world there's always a chance of something happening, here it's near impossible. Same with the movies and tv, I can only watch them when the day is done and I'm tired of every thing else, watching them in the daytime when it's my day off is murder, if I'm not playing an instrument or taking a walk or just being out in the world seeing places or meeting people I go nuts.

I kinda have the same.

Browsing Youtube is the middle road for me, you see a lot of useless junk but you get to click on a new video every few seconds / minutes which keeps you somewhat entertained.

Me too, I never liked sitting or laying around in one spot for too long.. my g/f always like sitting at the movies, and I hated it. I just wanna walk out of that theater. .. I do like being on the internet my laptop, and play games on my PS3, and it's becoz I can get up anytime I want. like every 5 minutes get myself coffee or something.

I have trouble sitting still if I don't wear myself out first.

We're not made to sit around all day, we, and men especially, are made to work. As in, physical labor.

Mow the yard, fix or redo the deck, fix up your roof, clean your gutters, rake the leaves, clean your siding, trim your trees...

...get outside and DO. It'll save you money, get you in shape, and overall just make you feel better about yourself.

If you've done nothing today to better your situation over yesterday, then what was today worth? Nothing.

Not usually, but recently I've been very listless. It could be all the coffee I'm drinking...

Yes, due to the large amount of coffee that I consume on a daily basis.

I have trouble like that sometimes. You just need to find something you love doing.

I like to have meltdowns. Then I enjoy coming on line pretending I'm the only one with that problem. The world doesn't understand me :(
