I know, its very pessimistic approach to life, but I feel so lonely and useless these days. I eat, sleep and do literally nothing. All the things I was good at or I enjoyed most are gone (no pc, no laptop, no educational achievements lately, no job, and zero social activity).

THE PROBLEM:

I feel soooo bored.
Maybe it is because after graduating from university my social life has been reduced to zero. (I am from another city and currently live alone at my flat with no particular friend's to visit).
Right now I am neither a student nor a professional. (Not a gamer as well)

I am also confused about my future and it constantly worries me. I want to get a job though.
I am a Ravian (2010-14 BA Hons in History) and I also did an LLB (2012-15) as after noon programme from Punjab University. I am planning to attempt for css exam next year but dont find myself motivated enough. I have had a bright background, like always standing first in class, gaining 90%+ in board exams etc which made me a topdog I guess. Now that I dont have anything, i feel lazy.
I feel nothing, a strange numbness has taken over me! I want enjoy something ANYTHING.

WHY DID I POST HERE?:

Purpose of posting here is get opinion from experiences fellowswho have gone through a lonely or useless phase of their life at any stage.

Is a gap between student life and professional life this harsh???
What to do?
How can I add some spice in my life?
Where to get motivation from? Or a will to live!

(Please dont crap the thread)
@mods guide me if any correction is needed.

Everyone feels down sometimes! Point is what to do and how to overcome it?

I game, I eat, I learn card tricks, I write. The point is to relax. I know that feeling you talk about but the more you try to "find" relaxation the more it will evade you. Just enjoy your time with anything that takes your fancy. You don't have to hold yourself to any standard. Call up some old buddies, visit someone you haven't met in a decade. Make a girl friend and bleed your heart out. Play games or read Agatha Christie. Do things you haven't done in a while. Run, jog, get a pet dog and make a friend out of him.

If you are antisocial. Plenty of things to do still.

You are right!
I try too hard to find fun and relaxation. I also have a strict standard check on myself. But who doesnt???
I ll try to figure it out and loosen up a little.

I am not anti-social, I just don't fit in. I wasted myself in my room gaining marks and nothing else, i have less exposure and i didnt travel much.

Not that i dont want to do, i just cant find a will to start anything. I am just too afraid to lose everything.

I know and take it from me, by the time you are doing jobs ten years from now, all of what you have achieved and all that will amount o only this, when do I go home and rest or have some fun. That is what it all comes down to my friend. Make money and have some fun, some de-stressing. So don't worry about it.You won't lose anything you are not to lose in the next 10 years. This is the only time of your life worth enjoying as a person with limited responsibilities, the rest is of your life will have a ton of those.

Thanku for taking time to answer in detail.

I try to enjoy, I try to live free!
But there comes a feeling of being useless. I am struggling to get back everything.

For an unknown reason I still cant relax. One word "awazaari"

Hah!

Thats cuz you never played CSGO or Arma!


Serious edit: if you really are bored and find no point in life. I suggest hooking up to an MMORPG, it will give you some time to think about and will keep you occupied. Its a great therapy.

there is always such time in everybody's life. dont think too much about yourself my friend and believe in ALLAH and to get peace in your life you need to follow this:

na dunia se na dolat se na ghar aabad honay se
tassali dill ko hoti hay khuda ko yaad karnay se

just keep this in your mind and try to attempt prayer 5 times a day (in masjid with jamaat) moreover remember after graduation or completing one part of education there comes a time when we see no way in front of us but actually its always there its just hidden from us for a particular time and everything becomes too clear when we try to help ourself but now just dont take it serious and just try not to waste too much time and just dont think about yourself too much. if you have done LLB try to practice law in courts with the help of a established lawyer because that is a step to step process to build your reputation as a lawyer and it will give you alot of experience. then in evening try to find another activity. hope everything will be alright :)

i dont know why you are still worried if you yourself want to be a good advocate. just practice law with the help of a experienced lawyer you may earn nothing in start but soon as you get used to the ways and meaning of earning and as soon as you meet with different people you will be able to get your own work. right now advocates are earning a great amount of money by doing a small amount of work and look at those judges and their pays. lhc just shortlisted about 400 civil judges so first try to practice law then you can apply for lawyer or judge jobs in future.

Is a gap between student life and professional life this harsh???

NO. You're just sitting on your ass.

What to do?

Certifications, learn skills, anything that makes you a better person.

How can I add some spice in my life?

Try HP Sauce


Where to get motivation from? Or a will to live!

Future regrets
