I also find that I'm really bored in life. I have friends but I only see them once in a while. In addition, my boyfriend who i don't really see that often as we are in a long-distance relationship is starting to bore me. I find myself wishing I was with someone more attractive, or exciting and fun. I've already tried breaking up with a few times, but we always get back together..and I really hate hurting him, but sometimes I feel like I'm just using him cos i'm scared nothing else will come along. I need to know if I'm just bored with my life right now, or if he and I are really done. I keep thinking about how I used to feel about us, and how blah I've been recently. I feel so depressed, and bored and I don't feel like myself anymore...please help cos I don't feel like I can see clearly right now....

Unemployment will do this to you.
If you have a brain and are forced to sit at home doing nothing then you are bound to start going crazy.
I recommend getting a job.... and I mean ANY job. It may be crap and not what you want to do but get something that is even just part time and it will get you out of the house and speaking to other human beings.
You can still look for jobs in your field and leave when you get one.
As for your boyfriend, you say you have broken up with him but you don't say why you get back together.
Have a serious think about whether you would be happier being single and getting out and meeting new people, or whether you want to play it safe and have someone to chat to every night.
Get out and about and meet new people, join a new club or group or volunteer somewhere.
Good Luck!! xx
