Get a hobby. Do something you love.

Boredom is often a state of anger that is turned inward and becomes a depression. It leads to a sort of paralysis where one subconsciously doesn't want to do anything because one can find no joy in life.

If you are bored, i.e., depressed, and can find nothing to stimulate you for more that 2 or 3 weeks I urge you to seek help before it gets worse.
