How do you go about dealing with boredom and anhedonia?

Questions/Advice

For me, I go through lots of different phases, and bounce between hyper focussing on different hobbies. At times though, I struggle in between these periods of focus and It feels like nothing is appealing, even things I could have been obsessed with at one point.

I wake up, think about what to do and nothing seams appealing. I try engage is my hobbies or interest, but struggle to motivate myself and get into it.

While the feeling isn’t inherently negative, I’m aware of my patterns and know that the boredom can build into frustration and cause emotional outbursts if It isn’t dealt with on time. I just can’t get the juice flowing and nothing is overly appealing to me right now.
