Hi All!
I am beginning to realize that my loneliness causes boredom, also.
I have been disabled since 7/1985 from Temporal Lobe Epilepsy, Major Depression, Anxiety, Mild Agoraphobia, OCD, and BPD.
ANYONE READING THIS THAT DOESN'T WANT TO WORK: BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU ASK FOR YOU MIGHT GET IT!
I have whole days to fill, and besides the loneliness of not being able to get out by myself and having only 3 phone friends--none near me--and I can't drive, I am bored out of my mind.
I am sick of TV/Netflix/Chores and Spending too much time on the Computer...although I will say this Forum has helped me.
On a very negative side, I was in recovery for alcohol and drugs, and now live with my Sister, because I can't afford my own place. We don't see eye to eye so it is very difficult, but she took me in when I could have been homeless...so I am blessed by that. However, I started drinking and hiding it, and can't go to rehab, because she said if I took one drink, she would kick me out...and she really would!
Is there anyone that feels things like I do, or someone that has suggestions to boredom so I don't have to self medicate. I feel fine in the morning and afternoons, but as evening approaches, I am a mess.
Thank you to all who respond.
