Ennui

Ennui is a big word that means feeling bored and unhappy with your life. You might feel like there's nothing fun or exciting to do, and everything seems dull and uninteresting.

Imagine being stuck inside on a rainy day with no toys or games to play with. You might feel restless and fidgety, wishing there was something more exciting to do. That's kind of like what ennui feels like, but instead of just being bored with your surroundings, you might feel bored with your whole life.

Sometimes ennui can happen when you've been doing the same things over and over again, and you feel like you're stuck in a rut. For example, if you eat the same boring sandwich for lunch every day, you might start to feel a sense of ennui about your meal.

It's important to remember that everyone experiences ennui at some point in their lives, and it's not necessarily something to be worried about. However, if you feel like your ennui is disrupting your daily life or causing you excessive stress, it might be helpful to talk to a trusted adult or a counselor about how you're feeling.
