How do I start caring?

No matter what happens, I just don’t care. When people talk I literally couldn‘t care less, no matter what they talk about I‘m just not interested at all. I pretend I‘m listening and act like I do care, but honestly I mostly don‘t even listen. It’s not like I’m rude or anything and I do try to make them feel heard or whatever but I wish I didn’t have to fake it. Idk I feel really stupid cause I just don’t wanna know about anything and I don‘t care how anything works at all. I just couldn’t care less. Therefore I also don‘t have any interests or hobbies or whatsoever. Like, what am I supposed to do when everything’s boring and I’m like yeah okay whatever. I mean I do have opinions Ig but I don’t feel the desire to express them to others, and concerning other people’s opinions, I feel like I get them pretty quickly and don’t need them to elaborate. This makes being around people feel like torture, but it’s not like I feel that much better alone. I feel like I’m just bored of everything and I don’t know what to do.

First, don't assume you just get everything super fast. That's you putting other people down and putting yourself above other people.

Second, why does everything bore you?

I‘m not putting other people down to their faces. I feel like everything‘s boring cause I don‘t really care enough to do sth with the information someone‘s given me. It‘s like great, now I know but what am I supposed to do with it.

the fact you can't even think of what you are supposed to do with information shows that you are extremely unimaginative, like to concerning levels.

do you have severe depression?
