What you’ve described are symptoms of depression. Perhaps you should see a doctor or therapist and just check that everything is alright with your health? :)

Some people would be grateful not to have the drama in their life. But I agree, a little drama is always fun :)

Have you thought perhaps of changing schools? I’ve recently returned to college, and of course it’s a small private college that functions mostly at night for working adults. Or, maybe you too should be thinking of night courses if you go to school mostly in the day. If the folks your age are not working for you, perhaps you would fit it better with an older crowd? Have you picked your major? How far along are you? Do you have your entire program mapped out? - a plan? You are working toward a specific goal here. there should be a plan, and you should be shooting for a specific target… if you are doing this, and it’s something YOU love (not your parents) then boredom should not be part of the picture.

hmmmm well, going to University is certainly not pointless. I applaud your efforts and wisdom to do that! I can feel your angst and understand it. Having seen a couple of your posts here, it’s clear you have a fine grasp of your situation. I’ll take your word about finding an older crowd, although I don’t really understand it.

The only other thing I might suggest then is try meeting like-minded people. I’m sure you will come across this as you progress in your major… but you might look outside of school too - an oasis so-to-speak.
