Don't worry. This thread isn't going to be me complaining how bored I am as I type this. 8D

What are your favorite things to do to curb boredom? Do you have days when you're just bored and don't know what to do?

I'm always bored. Any of my PC friends who know me best know I'm bored 24/7, even if I start writing or doing something productive. I get bored easily and stop and get even more bored because I'm bored... lol. I usually only have very few things I can do since I'm unable to work (due to disability), so those things include playing on my Switch, writing or doing art journaling. Some days, it can take effort for me to get out of a state of boredom, usually depending on spoons and the like.

You got me, I saw the title and fell for the bait so here I am.~

I used to get pretty bored as a kid but over the past several years I've noticed I don't get bored very often at all. I think the way I approach my hobbies and the way I've recently been learning to pay extra attention planning a schedule for myself means I'm always thinking about whatever the next thing I'm going to do is. With video games sometimes I'll plan out when I'm going to play them in advance, sometimes even several at once, so it feels like that's always something I can fall back on and spend time doing. I've been having specific days of the week or a certain time during that day when I'll commit to doing something with friends if I'm free, so on those days I'll wake up going "today is Saturday, so I have plans with friends later, and can do X, Y, and Z to kill time beforehand". And just due to how life is, sometimes there will be plans that pop up that take my attention.

But I can definitely still get bored if whatever I'm doing loses my interest, or if it feels like I'm just in-between things to do on everything, and usually I find rhythm games are great in those moments. I can open osu and play a song for something like 2 minutes, or play several longer songs that are multiple minutes each and there goes an hour or two. I can pick it up or put it down at any time and whenever I open it again there's usually some song I'm thinking about that I want to play.

I think there's always something to do, and it's been nice to feel like my life has been more engaging after I've been taking time for my hobbies more seriously.

I have too many interests so its difficult for me to get bored.

When I get bored I start aggressively falling asleep so I'd rather always prevent that.

When I get bored, I definitely go back to things I used to do. I usually redesign my social media profiles, make theories whenever I spot one, complete games/stuff that I never get to finished. I also just write too XD or binge watch, (As of right now I'm watching this, I'm watching Let's Game it Out and Danny Gonzalez!)

Out of all of these things, redesigning/making profiles and going back to what I used to do is my main cure of boredom! ^_^

Doing something creative always helps me.

I tend to hoard things to do because boredom could be dangerous for me. (I need to keep my mind occupied to keep the negative thoughts away.) So there's a stockpile of things that I can do at any given time. 1500+ Youtube videos, 1000s of books in my house, three different stories to work on, 20-ish video games to play... Even over 1200 tabs to go through. Barring fun activities, there's always something to be cleaned or sorted through in my house. If the weather is decent, I lean towards taking a dog for a walk.

Generally I just go play a game or watch an Anime.
Don't have much else to do that's repeatable =P
