2 members on another post were talking about being boring. These 2 are the wittiest, funniest and kookie gals you can meet. The word boring wouldn't come in a 100000000000 mile radius. I just wonder how they define Boring? They know who they are and will choose to reply or not.

Again, what is your definition of boring? Do you think the illness, or especially the meds, play a part? Or is it down to personality regardless?

Hi ruby :) My sister called me last week and asked me how I was doing...her life sounded so Busy lately, so I mostly listened while she talked. At some point, I told her Yes, it had been 12 days since I talked with our parents, but gee - I had nothing exciting to Tell them, and they Love that sort of thing.

I don't consider myself to be truly dull or uninteresting, but Boooooring? YES, for many reasons. I don't have a Job anymore....I don't have a Car, so I don't Go lots and lots and lots of places.....I don't stay Up late at night anymore....(whine, whine) - actually, I'm OKAY with that stuff! But it seems "Booooring" when I listen to the 'exciting' lives of others. (including YOU, ruby!)

:/ :)

Boredom is a choice. If you feel bored, then your thinking is out of whack.
