BPD Boredom and Emptiness

Many clients report experiencing boredom intertwined with sadness, depression, and a pervasive sense of emptiness. This video explores the distinctions between these feelings and offers strategies to manage and reduce boredom. Boredom is a fleeting state caused by monotonous tasks or a lack of external stimulation, such as no one calling or engaging with you. Emptiness, on the other hand, is a deeper, more persistent feeling of lacking meaning, purpose, or substance, often described as a hollow void that cannot be filled. Historically, boredom was included in the early criteria for diagnosing borderline personality disorder (BPD) but was later removed, as it overlaps with symptoms in other disorders like depression, ADHD, and impulse control disorders. While emptiness is closely tied to feelings of hopelessness, loneliness, and worthlessness, making it a strong predictor of depression and suicidal ideation, boredom remains a distinct construct. It often drives impulsivity, depression, unstable self-concept, and anxiety. Understanding your patterns of boredom and emptiness can help you identify whether these feelings are part of your core struggles, as they are for many clients. • Daniel J.
