Title: Bored.
Post by: T_Bone on November 10, 2005, 05:50:22 AM
Not everyday, garden variety bored, we're talking dopamine supressing, saratonin imbalanced, brain damaging bored. I'm SOOO bored. I'm so bored that if I even get near anything remotely interesting, I suck the color right out of it and it loses interst. People are having to seek psychiatric treatment from just being in my proximity for a few minutes.

I hate this time of year.

I hope your blues are short-lived my man...

Sorry, what were you saying? I fell asleep.. :-P

Get yourself some vitamin D and K suppliments if you are under the influence of SAD. Make sure you see some genuine daylight during the day and stay active...

bored? HAH!
atm I feel just grumpy, annoyed, sad, frustrated, life-out-of-control-ish. And it has not much to do with the weather. I just don't know whether to walk forward or backward...

No, not hormones, I just began to realise what a lousy study I'm studying. Well, not really the study, but the way I have to study is lousy. I'm not motivated anymore.

That happens Eyso, you have days or even weeks that make you wonder why you are doing it...but you would regret it if you quit.


In my case, hormones are a very important part of my life at the moment :lol:

I won't quit, I just wonder if I can't study it better elsewhere. It's solely the way of studying wich is messy.
I'm autistic (well, Asperger), and the main culture in studies nowadays is particularly autistic-unfriendly. Managing projects in project groups is the main aim nowadays.

Where to begin?

Its a case of being spoiled for choice (i.e having too many choices) - and believe it or not, I HATE these situations, because I have to make difficult decisions, and sometimes making the wrong decision can scupper the other options...

I want to have my cake and eat it! :lol:
