Does boredom make you anxious?

When others are boring me & I'm stuck......
but the group is the boring majority & I don't 'get it' so I am anxious & boring.....

Re: Boredom
Sun, July 8, 2007 - 7:47 PMyeah, me too, i think boredom is a sign of needing to do something, so i try to find SOMETHING to do, i dont let it rule me, otherwise i go crazy, like, REALLY, if i have to deal with it for too long, i lose my grip, so to speak, and anxiety takes over, i usually try to find something physically active to do, even if its just for the sake of just DOING something, anything i go for walks, get on the computer, read, talk to strangers, anything to stop the boredom, its a killer.i hate boredom.

Mon, July 9, 2007 - 4:39 PMI know whereof you speak... Boredom is pretty stressful in that it gives me a bit too much time to rewind and [over]think. -

Hmmm I think it's a neccesity at times.
Some of us learn slow about life & keep hurting ourselves til we take serious time out & rewind rewind til we either get something we didn't, wee it in better nuances, get tired of the movie or Just Bored!
Just like a favorite movie or even one that was ok but you look at it again cz it's the only one in the house at midnight & after 2-3-4 times you start noticing much more then you did before, start looking at it from a different characters perspective & it either becomes an important film to you or you decide it wasn't so good after all>>>>>>>

Re: Boredom
Mon, July 9, 2007 - 11:18 PMI think it's sometimes when I realize I'm alone (not just feeling alone as I can handle that, but when it actually starts to feel a bit lonely at times) that it gets to me. I have a huge to-do list of mostly small things, some bigger ones, etc. that's kept in my head. ;) When it hits me that I'm alone with nothing to do I try to focus on those little things for a bit. Or I get out of the house and leave the nagging list behind. Going thrift-shopping or somewhere to read a book are my favorite excuses, as (usually) neither one costs very much. -

Re: Boredom
Sat, July 14, 2007 - 12:15 PMYeahhhh the 'thrift shop escape'! Boyo did I get addicted to that one. Maybe to escape Tribeing *~*
& now I have a ton of mundane tasks to deal with all the addiction results
Since I am usually creative & "have a good eye" quothe others, I find something by it with inspiration to finally Do Something, get home set it down to deal with life there & it's loss in the pile of inspirations til the cats find it.......
Some people do stupid things & then some do other stoopid thangs............ -

thrifting therapy
Sat, July 14, 2007 - 5:49 PMSounds like me, too. I figure it's good cheap shopping therapy, and one can always turn around and re-donate the stuff they don't use. :) I think there's something about finding a good deal on a unique item that makes me feel good, probably similar to how you have a good eye for things.

Re: Boredom
Thu, August 23, 2007 - 7:56 PMI find that boredom tends to have me send issues up to the commity in my head and that is where uncertianty and fear are able to begin to raise their ugly heads. Time has been an enemy of mine through out my life. The less I have the more stressful the situation; the more I have, the more stress I create. Just where is that balance?
