Scott,
You've summed up so well how I tend to feel on antidepressants with your statment below, so I know that I am only partially responding. Have you found anything to deal with this? Because I too feel really bored all of the time, I keep busy but there is this sense of nothingness, like no matter what I do, I still feel the same, no highs, no lows just this constant kind of Blah felling. I'm sure I could be parachuting, hang gliding, bungee jumping and I'd still feel pretty much the same.
"For me, the emergence of boredom is a good sign that the depression is lifting. I am normally too anergic to desire activity. As my mental energy begins to return, I no longer want to do nothing. However, there is nothing that I want to do. There remains a lack of interest with no anticipation of reward".
