i know exactly how you feel!. sometimes we all feel like there is no reason to wake up in the morning, like it wouldnt matter if we stayed in bed all day!. i felt like this for a while, but then i started to look at things more deeply!. what is our purpose here on earth!? i was not sure of mine until i found God!. i know people try to preach to you about this and that, and its fine if you dont believe, but just start out by reading everyday bible verses!. they really help you feel enlightened and like the day is worth living!.
Jesus said, "Your Father knows what you need before you ask him!." Matthew 6:8
God knows that you need meaning in your life!. Talk to him about what kinds of things you see in your future!. Slowly, you will begin to build a relationship with him!. It doesnt sound like much, but this is one of the most FULFILLING relationships you will have in your life!. You will start to feel like you are living for something!.

When you call upon me and come and pray to me, I will hear you!. When you search for me, you will find me; if you seek me with all your heart!. Jeremiah 29:12-13!.

He will ALWAYS be there for you if your intentions are not selfish and are there for love and guidance!. Life will no longer seem dull when he ignites the spark inside of you!.

Good luck on your journey!Www@Answer-Health@Com

It sounds like you probably are depressed and as you said you have "a lot going on"!. Sometimes depression can be a hormonal thing such as with hypothyroidism or seasonal affective disorder!. Lack of good quality sleep can also cause depression!. Sometimes medicines can help you get out of this cycle of thoughts and other associated symptoms more quickly!. You might need to talk to a counselor to try to figure out what is affecting you, but sometimes it is just a chemical imbalance!. You could ask your doctor to check your thyroid hormone levels!. Do you have any family history of depression!? It sometimes tends to run in families!. Make sure that you are eating nutritious foods and lots of green leafy veggies!. Get lots of sunshine and also find a friend to talk to who you can trust!.


Also, make sure that any medications you might be taking (including such things as possibly birth control pills are not contributing to this)!.
I hope you get to feeling better soon!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I feel like that sometimes too!. The thing I try hard to do is find something to be passionate about or involved in, even if it's something that seems silly - a game, a friend's problem, a movie, work, anything!. Try not to sit around and think about the fact that you're just going through the motions of life and that it doesn't mean anything, because it will just snowball :DWww@Answer-Health@Com

Find a way to take a break and do something different for a few days or a week if possible!. If you can take a couple days off work or even if they will send you on a business trip - go somewhere different and try to go it alone!. Even if you just rent a hotel room in town over the weekend!.

This will give you some time to reflect on what you're missing and what changes you need to make to be where you want to be!. If nothing else, it will help you appreciate what you've got going on right now when you get back home and you will do what you normally do a lot better and you'll be happier!. Give it a shot!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I can certainly relate to the feeling!. Recently, I have experienced the same sort of boredom (for lack of a better word) with life!. Sometimes, you just get into a pattern of doing the same old things day in and day out!. It's really great that you do what you can to lift others up and encourage them, and I am sure they truly appreciate it!. However, definitely make sure you take some time for yourself to do something different and/or something you really enjoy! Www@Answer-Health@Com

A very good book to read is called "THe Sky's the Limit", written by Dr!. Wayne D!. Dyer!. Dyer presents a revolutionary new way to look at your life and the lives of others, and how to avoid falling into the trap of "just going through the motions", as you describe!. I've read it and can't recommend it enough!

Other hints!? Be healthy!. Eat healthy, exercise, avoid excess caffeine, sugar, alcohol, etc etc!. Everyone knows this!. But you gotta DO it!.!.!. your brain will function 100% better!. And for heavens sakes, if you are able at all costs!.!.!.AVOID prescription medication (unless your life depends on them!.) Regardless of how great a drug company says thier new miracle drug is, most meds are horribly bad for you!.

Hope this helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Aside from helping what do you do for yourself!? Do you have any hobbies!? Sometimes I feel like that!. I just find a new hobby or start planning some random things to do!. Something to break up the routine!. I have tried gardening, sewing, guitar, home decorating, & learning Spanish!. I also try to plan something silly on the weekend!. Like my friend and I went to pick strawberries in the spring!. Now we are going to find pumpkins for the holidays!. You have to find something you like!. My husband drags me to car shows, camping, concerts!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

It sounds like the whole day-to-day routine is getting to you!.!. it's like the lyrics from Bittersweet Symphony: "try to make ends meet, you're a slave to the money then you die!." Kind of a depressing outlook on life!.
Have you ever looked into the subject of Philosophy!? That's a subject that can really transform your outlook on life and the way you view things which can ultimately make you more happy with life in general!.

Simpler advice would be to pick up something you have never thought of doing, something to learn from and break your daily routine!. You have to give yourself more to look forward to!.

Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Variety is the spice of life! What I find generally is that life ebbs and flows, that is to say that sometimes their is seemingly nothing going on, then before you know it their is to much going on!. Why not try and do something different, take up a new hobby, join a new club, go (back) to education!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

It may be due to your routine!. Getting too entrenched in a routine can equate to boredom to many people!. You may also have too much going on in your life!. Perhaps simplifying your life would ease some of the dullness!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It seems dull because you're not doing what you love, or what you really enjoy doing!. Make the time for some "you" time, and start doing things that make you happy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
