Welp, I'm bored

I have zero motivation to fully heroic raid or push a M+ key past 10. I don’t feel like farming stuff, or leveling my army of 50s, or gearing my army of 60s. I am kinda just at a loss.
Hell, I don’t even have the motivation to play other games or do anything else I enjoy doing like digital art.

Any suggestions?

I would check with a doc about that. Not finding enjoyment in things you once did, can be a sign of a mental health issue brewing.

As someone that has had issues with mental illnesses, this is how it started for me (losing interest in things I once enjoyed doing).

Go to the gym and improve your IRL model.

I can also confirm. Went through the same thing.

No point playing a game that bores you. Find something new. Not necessarily a new MMO or even multiplayer. I haven’t logged in all week. Been playing though cyberpunk again.

Or find something not computer related, something new you never thought you would try. Eventually you may feel the itch to play WoW again. Or, then again, maybe you won’t.

Wish i could tell you op. I hate myself so im not really the best person to give advice.

Take a break. Play something else.

On the subject of WoW, while I like the idea of the Creation Catalyst I find that it has reduced the excitement of the raid difficulties. Our guild has yet to clear Heroic but about 1/3 of us don’t have anything to get out of Heroic except AOTC. We got and converted all our gear from M+. This is affecting the whole dynamic of raid nights and I can tell group interest is waning. Hopefully we can do something to rekindle that excitement but I am getting worried about AOTC.

This joke gets the Dadghar seal of approval, admittedly I was also gonna make it XD.

Severe anxiety has had me house bound since November. Can’t even go to the doctor’s office without having a near panic attack and the hospital isn’t even a 5 minute walk away from me.

So I doubt I’ll be able to get over to the gym (which is an under 5 minute drive).

Or they could be burned out on games… sometimes you just need to find another hobby

M+ is overrated anyway. Imagine running the same dungeons over and over again (or in some cases the exact same dungeon over and over again) just to hope getting a little piece of loot that will get replaced in a month or two anyway.

Epic battlegrounds are much more fun, come join the fun.

They can be until you get globaled in 2 seconds by a gladiator geared player and when you make the complaint about that being complete bs(which it is) you get shut down and told its “fair”.

Then dive into that digital art! Pick up a pack of printer paper and doodle all over every page too. Use ink, charcoal and anything else you can get your hands on.

That definitely seems like a health red flag in conjunction with the depression, is it people and crowded areas or can you have a house call made privately with the doctor?

That Shadowlands feeling, imo

Generally when people lose joy in the things they normally quite like… that’s a mental health check. I know that was the case for me… though in my case it was a matter of being so stressed out between things that I just sort of stopped and went into a weird auto-pilot mode.

Had to clear out some things that were stressing me out.

I can confirm also. Turns out I had bad anxiety, on Lexapro/Wellbutrin now and my life is forever changed!
