Does anyone else ever get a sense of not knowing what to do. I have been having one of those today I've mostly laid around I wouldn't even say im dissatisfied I just don't know what to do. Nothing I think of seems good or like the thing to do. Maybe I'm bored with everything.
I tend to do nothing when depressed but I'm not depressed.

So does this happen to you?
What do you do?

Nope. We'll have to take you in for extensive psychological testing because in the entire history of human civilization, no-one has expressed such a feeling.

Sarcasm aside, yeah. Mostly I just watch Netflix, read a book, or maybe just lie on a bed.

I never know what to do, I mostly go with the flow or something man!

But yeah I get that sometimes, it's pretty annoying but normally it just lasts a day or two and then I go back to "normal", in any case it'll probably go away or something.

Yeah, I get that sometimes. My first thought is usually to just play a game, but after perusing my massive collection of video games I usually decide I don't feel like playing anything and thus I often end up either laying on my bed listening to music or going out for a walk.

I generally go out and get some fresh air, stick my MP3 player on and just go for a walk. It usually gets me out of my funk and if it doesn't then I a feel better for not letting it get the better of me.

This has happened to me before but it hasn't happened recently. Maybe try eating something? That may help. Or maybe you can get into contact with a friend or a few friends? That could help. The last few times I got into that kind of funk I think I eventually went on to re-read a comic or, re-play one of my games.

Mmmhm. Even with work, college and vidya games I always feel at a loss of what I should be doing.

I know how that can be, it sucks, it's like a mild funk, a boredom funk, it gets you and you know you can do a ton of stuff, but nothing springs to mind and everything seems dull.

Of course this is coming from someone who previously had access to a steam library that CAUSED that feeling unless I had it organized rigourously into tabs... just looking at my games list without organizy tabs makes me feel lost... that's what happens when steam sales get toooooooo gooood tooooo ooooffffteeeeen...

And right now, I have a netbook(with shitty stats) a bass guitar with no amp, and... clothing... and after the 14th, I'll be on the street... in canada... on the east coast... and winter is coming... so yeah if you don't see me post for a LOOOONG time... like by march, just know, I didn't thaw out... and I am indeed dead...

On a less depressing note, if I can walk to halifax from where I am in moncton before I starve, I may be able to get someone to hook me up...

As others have already said, go for a walk. Fresh air and light exercise are good for clearing the mind.

When it does, I usually watch videos online to kill the feeling. Bad movies also work. Same with hentai. :)

Jaykay on everything but the last one!
Someone, somewhere is double taking to that and thinking 'marry me'! -_-

OT: Happens a lot, even when I'm busy at work...

If at work, I'll just take a couple moments to pause, then get back to it (usually haranguing someone...)

If at home, I'll flip open a couple books and start tapping away at my PC. Very rarely do I game when I don't have anything else to do... I game to get away from crap I don't want to do... -_- *shrug*

Apparently what you do is post on a forum about how you've got nothing to do...

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you don't have a steady job because people who have to work 5 out of 7 days tend to have massive amounts of crap to do on the 2 they have off. Even then, they tend to want to do nothing at all.

Here's a strange suggestion: Go offer to help someone for the entirety of the day. Living for yourself gets to be a slog and to really mix things up, go be someone's assistant just for one whole day. Whatever they want or need done, go get it done.

All the time, mostly when I've exhausted all my games and have nothing to play, and I just continue to walk around my apartment until something happens.

Like what?
Pacing around until your tread works a hole into the unit below you?
Nuclear blast or zombie attack?

lol, usually until I think of something to do usually it just ends up with me surfing the internet and hitting refresh on the various forums I have up.
