I feel empty all the time, and I equate it with boredom. I've tried so many things to fill the void but nothing really works. I try to busy myself with as much entertainment as possible or seeing the few friends that I have, or I use alcohol, sex, or whatever. The only thing that gives me a sense of being a real person is being in a romantic relationship but they are always problematic, but very fulfilling while they last. I'm not in a position to give advice but I can understand what you're going through.

I tend to usually feel airy rather than empty. Like I'm not really connected to the world and I'm just looking at it from above or something. Then when I get depressed I feel like all the air has been let out. I feel like there is nothing and then sometimes i feel like there is too much and I'm going to pop. Yes I like using extended metaphors. I often get the feeling that I'm not quite real and everything is going to fade away.
