I call this shit Evil Boredom.
It's the worst and it makes me feel angry and guilty and dumb and broken. Evil. Evil Boredom.
For me it helps to think of this kind of boredom not as "nothing to do", but as a lack of purpose. I sometimes go on a walk (to get the sensory input my head needs to work properly) and try to figure out what feels meaningful at all as I do it. That helps escape this hole, if the meaningful thing I can think of is something I can currently do.
