Does anyone just feel perpetually bored?

I don’t know what to do about this. I always seem to feel bored/forced whenever doing almost anything, even my hobbies. I feel like I have some periods where I don’t feel as bored (I’m bipolar ii so it may be during hypomania) but usually regardless of mood I’m just perpetually bored. Does anyone relate or have tips on how to not feel this way?

@homucnulus Hi, thanks for posting this!
I think perpetual boredom is pretty common with depression. Often this is described as a feeling of emptiness. It's good to recognize those periods of hypomania but that other than that you tend to feel that boredom.
Do you feel like a change in routine would help? Sometimes we get stuck doing the same thing day after day.
