I feel really bored when i'm depressed. Today i went to the mall for three hours and people-watched just to have something to do. It worked out rather well and i feel refreshed. My tolerance for TV is really low -- it seems so noisy and inane and silly. Playing game after game of Scrabble helps as does doing crosswords. Reminding myself of my many blessings keeps me from feeling too overwhelmed by the unpleasantness of the boredom.
