Is it normal to have to always be doing something?

I'm always bored when I'm doing nothing. In like the first five minutes I'm just bored out of my mind. When I watch tv, I get bored quickly. Tv doesn't entertain me anymore. I have to be doing something like be on my phone, socializing, etc.

Please excuse any grammatical errors..

    Is being on the phone or socializing really doing something?

    I'd rather do nothing.

    Once I sit on the couch, there's no going back.

    I am not that way. I can sit for hours, alone, content in my own silence.

    I suffer frm the same problem, have to do something, I cant sleep even when I feel sleepy, its almost like my brain will not let me be still and sleep. It happens to me because I feel unfulfilled.

    I know some people get bored like that but it's something I cant understand. The world is vast with exploration and so are your thoughts. My mind can wonder for hours and I'll be totally entertained by my own thoughts..

    Im the same, but it tend to get really bad if I have sugar or caffeine so I tend to avoid the stuff.

    Some people just have to be doing something and some people are fine doing nothing. It's just the way you are

    I'm much the same. The only way I can sit still is if my mind is racing.
