I have been dealing with clinical depression for over 3 years. I understand completly what you are asking. I experienced the same thing. Boredom does not tie in with depression in a medical sense. It does, however, have a GREAT DEAL to do with Attention Deficit Disorder. (ADD).
Do not mistake this for ADHD, which is the hyperactivity disorder. ADD is the opposite. You become bored EXTREMELY easily. Hence, Attention Deficit. (Nothing can hold your attention span for a long amount of time, unless it is something that interests you).
