Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• Nothing’s actually wrong
• There’s this dull, restless boredom that keeps showing up around my work and my routine, and I can’t tell what it’s actually telling me
• There’s this flat, hollow boredom that follows me everywhere, and I keep trying to fill it with my phone, food, more work, anything
• When I finally do sit through something dull, all these stray thoughts and odd connections bubble up
• I’ve got something playing or scrolling pretty much every waking minute, and now even mild quiet feels unbearable and ordinary tasks feel flat
