Why Does Every Day Feel The Same Sometimes?

Have you ever been in a situation continually where you feel like that you are living the same day over & over again? Where it has a thought like you got stuck on a single day while your known ones are getting forward on time. I’ve been into such situations so many times and believe plenty of you too. Especially from the past 1 year after the pandemic hit us this way that we got locked up in the houses and have nothing to do. Although the feeling of stuck in an endless time loop is much prior to the pandemic.

Whether you are a job person, student, housewife, and retired, the feeling of stuck in a time is common.

So, why does every day feel the same sometimes? There must be a reason, a scientific and a psychological explanation that can expound the inducement of our notion of being living our boring routine nature every day.

If you aren’t familiar with this feeling, let me tell you that the person with such a sense develops a sense of routine work as the only work to do in their life. All the planning, adventures, and expectations they have with their human life seem to go down the drain. It’s the time when you feel empty space inside you. The feeling of having no time but have enough time.

Imagine a situation where a life cycle instead of going on a straight line is circling around on a loop. Now the thing is that you are living the same day time and time again, with literally doing the same activities from the start of the day. It’s the Deja vu of Deja vu.

Seems, time just broken for you or perhaps stop working anymore. Every time you cross the day, it comes around again the same way with all the default activities. Think of an episode that you watch every time where you can accurately predict what’s gonna happen next?

What Can Be Reason Behind The feeling Of Your Groundhog Day?

On average, we sleep 8 hours a day which I think you must be taking. Now the remaining 16 hours is what we have left for all the activities and to explore life.

From lifting your head off the pillow and putting it back down and the time section i.e., 16 hours in between them is for all the regular stuff you do is what the normal life is, which is definitely kinda boring because it’s come over & over again.

There are certain things that we don’t like doing but of course, have to do in those 16 hours which is why we fantasize about future expectations.

We all tend to view our lives in a sort of narrative structure that we’ve been told and witnessed about the human life cycle. That we are born, there comes a childhood and then education, graduation, job, money, experience, adventure and then marriage and this goes on and on. But you should know that these are life events and the highlights that you kept to tell others about your life.

If you come to the reality you find that what actually life feels like on a day-to-day basis is quite different and considered absolutely normal. Yes, life, in general, is pretty much normal. Your day-to-day experience is the dominant part of anyone’s life and is what you spend most of your life.

Although I agree that some people spent adventurous, exciting life more often but they also a part of the normal life, they also do their day-to-day activities every single day that we all do more often.

Our amazing days become our expectations and our normal days become boring just because our daily routine remains uninterrupted for several weeks and months. This is may also the reason that why does every day feel the same.

It may also be the social media, where everyone is doing fun things that you are missing in your life, that makes you even more stressful.

What You Can Do To Overcome This Feeling?

The good thing is you are not alone. You can see enough people complaining about this feeling on the internet. You can even ask your friend the same question and there is a strong possibility he will ask you the same question.

Now, this can sound super depressing or super inspiring on how you look at it.

Depending on the person’s way of thinking, some take their life complicated while some also believe that life is simple but we intend to make it complicated.

Here are few things that you can do to make your day exciting:-

1. First and foremost stop believing that you are alone. And if you still think that you’re alone then still there is nothing to worry about. Because Being alone doesn’t always mean only sadness or hatred. There is a difference between Being Alone and Being lonely.
