Do you have any goals? I think one way to fight boredom and the mental health ups and down is to have goals and routines. If you can figure out something you want to work towards then you will be able to use that hypo energy in a way that benefits you (self improvement, projects, earning money). When we are low energy, it is best to force ourselves to continue to work towards some of the same goals though we might not get as much done. There are some things I do, like my daily 4.5 mile walk, whether I am in the mood or not. The thing is, once I get out there, I usually find that I enjoy it. My medications smooth out the ups and downs to some extent but IMO having a routine that you stick with might be even more important than medications.

Do you have a routine that you always stick too! Routines help us maintain when our energy is low. Do you have a job or a source of income of your own? With a source of income, it is easier not to be bored.
