I was made redundant 2 months ago. (3rd redundancy) and I'm signed on the old rock and roll. I'm registered with agencies and am always searching & appliying for work. (But the field I work in is niche in the area I live) My problem is that I'm so bored and with all this time on my hands I should be going out and doing something. But I cant actually be bothered with any of my friends at the moment. My boyf, who I love more than anything, is getting it in the neck from me coz I just feel so useless. My new found pessimistic outlook on life aint helping my other problems. I know that its depression but have been treated for it before and found that nothing helps (for me anyway). And that I will eventually pull myself out of it. So what can I do. Anyone got any good forums to discuss this? Or any ideas? Ways to cure boredom? Perhaps someone out there wants to give me my dream job.. I dont ask for much just job satisfaction and loads of wedge. Help me, I'm driving myself (and my georgous boyf) up the wall!!

Why don't you do some voluntary work? I'm sure charities would be grateful for someone who can offer them time/skills. It may help put your problems into perspective.
learn to play the piano, travel, study another profesion, join a sports team. I think jocasta's charity idea is excellent
What sort of job would you most love?

Thanks for your charity work idea. It is sometying I have thought about before and I know that it would be well appreciated as well as fulfilling. I am looking into it further. Scarlett. The work I am qualified to do, and love, is insurance claim investigation. But where I live, there is not much call for it as most of the industry is based else where in the country. I would love a change and often think about teaching or mental health work, but is difficult to get into unless qualified. And to be honest, I've got debts and need to keep a good wage coming in. And Ajej, thank you also for your suggestions. At the moment, I cannot afford to study but sports team would one to consider. Thanks for suggestions all.
