How do you handle boredom?

When boredom strikes, reading books is definitely a good idea. That is if you are a book lover, otherwise try something worthwhile such as cleaning your room or cooking. In that way you can make your parents happy and yourself as well. But in my case I love food tripping when I am bored, going to places that I missed hanging out or simple stay home and have a movie marathon.

MUSIC! That's one thing i always do when i am bored. I would read books also if i am bored. I like to hang out with friends and keep on chatting non stop with all of them also if i am bored. I would spend hours in front of the computer playing games or looking for sites like mylot. So when i do such things i am not really bored.

Getting bored is just a disturbance in your mind removing you focus to your goal. Just keep the work going. Getting bored is just natural, and when you get to handle it very well its gonna make you realize youre a better person. The only thing i can advise is that love what ever you do, and you wont get bored. thats it.

i guess reading a book is a nice idea. i'm used to borroe a boo from my friends or just download ebook from internet to be watched through a laptop. happy reading

I usually go out with my friends if I feel bored. We go to a coffee shop and discuss some businesses were on to and of course to talk about our lives, what is new!

As we all know that boredom is a complex process.There are many reasons that one might get bored.I usually prefer listening to music whenever I feel bored because it makes our mind fresh and active.

i hate the feeling honestly. most especially if its sunday. most of the time if im darn bored, ill sing and dance, drink something just to unwind myself. ill do it at home. or id rather sleep.

Mylot is one thing that keeps me from being bored. Yes there are times that are just a total slack but if one keeps himself busy, he will soon forget his boredom. Like when I'm bored listening to a boring teacher, I usually draw or do sketches on my notebook!

Boredom often knocks at my front door being a full time mom. Even if I don't invite them in it still manage to penetrate my thoughts. How can I be so bored with all the chores I've to dealt with everyday? But I'm bored with my routines and i'm bored with seeing the same things everyday at almost the same time. What I do? I go out.Drink coffee in a shop just to change the environment or bring the kids to the mall so they too can have fun and have a change of environment. If I don't have time to go out, I redecorate the house.Rearrange the furniture, put new fixtures and clean the house it becomes squeaky clean. this make me feel comfortable and relax. When I was in the province, I combat boredom by working in the garden. Growing flowering plants. It was a good therapy and our house looked more friendly and pleasant because of all the flowers that bloom. :-)

Well when I'm bored I usually just come to mylot to get unbored it works fairl well and if I'm still bored then I just watch tv. Tv is very entertaining and it's main purpose is to take away boredom. And if that doesn't work then I will go eat because I usually eat when I'm bored and if I'm still bored after that then I will well uh. Then I will just fall asleep because I'm to bored to be awake during the day and then maybe when I wake up all the boredom will be gone and then I can continue feeling not bored that's pretty much how I handle it. I know I'm weird, but hey it never hurt anybody to be a bit weird so yeah for weirdness and no yeah to being bored.

well i think,if you make a plan or goal but you can't stick to try when you realize you are boring,in this posiation you maybe learn to adjust u mood and relax u body. how to adjust u badly mood?you can think of waht thing that make u happy,the person make u laugh ect.Have a rest when you feel bored.how to relax u tired body,u can try to have a warm bath,listenning soft music,watching some comedy movie....do what you want to do.good luck.

I love singing. so every time i feel bores . i feel so bored. i will get my magic sing and sing. singing is a good thing to release our emotions stock inside our hears, if your angry. you sing loud, you choose high notes of song and shout.try it it's very effective to release anger sometimes.lol

Interesting question msdyulyet. It reminds me of how my mom handled our boredom. When we said "Mom, I'm bored" mom would pick up a small bucket she had for the occasion, or at least it seemed so, and a sponge. She would begin to fill up the bucket and before it was filled, we were busily occupied doing something else. This really stuck since afterwards, when i feel a little bored, which hasn't happened for quite some years, I occupy myself with whatever needs to be done. In my opinion occupational therapy as it is sometimes called is the best cure for boredom.

i read or go to the movies

When I am bored it depends on the day itself. Sometimes when I feel like watching a movie from a DVD, I will do it. Sometimes I feel like reading a good novel, so I will just read for hours. Some other times I will just sleep especially when I don't feel like doing anything and I feel tired at that time.

I usually try to read, surf the internet or paint if I am feeling bored. There are lots of interesting sites on the internet and I am always able to learn something new simply by visiting a lot of different sites. Sometimes I like to play some games where I can learn something for instanse geography or vocabulary games. Sometimes I pick a country that I would like to know more about and search for information online. I also like to look at online galleries or participate in online discussions. If I am feeling really bored and can't find something interesting to do, I try to challenge myself in some way, and I try to do something that I am afraid of. It always gives me a "kick" to overcome my fear, and my boredom disappears

We are a very active family. All of my boys and my husband try to foresee a gap in time at try to fill it ahead of time. My hubby can manage 20 Bonsai trees, landscape and lawn work, our summer place, vehicle maintenance and three Shar-pei (dogs). Lets not forget boat maintenance, fishing and a job that keeps him busy 60 to 70 hours a week! I'm studying marketing, maintaining the house and squeezing in 50 to 55 days away from home, plus doing this. There's always something waiting (in the wings) to be done. My youngest works two jobs during the summer. My middle son is going to school for welding and my oldest is a salesman. If you want us, you have to find us first!

When boredom strikes, I run to the movie house or go out of town with my friends who happens to be free to come with me. Sometimes, I just simply go window shopping and when I find some interesting things to buy that I can afford to pay for ,I buy it. Then, I eat junk foods rebelliously. Goodbye to boredom!

it is very difficult to define boredom. because , certain activities which seems tro be boredom but will occupy yourself completely and u will find a terrific change due to that activity. boredom happens to all . there is no exception but passing away the boredom depends upon person to person . some may spend time watching tv or sittling idle or reading books or as you say doing some crafts etc., i use to watch comedy tv channels when ever i am feeling that boreing
