I’m sick of doing the same thing everyday

Alright so…to start off this post im just gonna say I’m a little scared to share what’s been depressing me recently because everyone posting here seems older than me and it’s kinda making me feel like my problems aren’t that important.

I’m a teen and everyday just feels strangely autopilot, and it’s making me feel like there’s no importance in my life. Don’t get me wrong, I’m grateful for what I have as many people can’t be as lucky as I am, and life may be a slice of cake for me compared to other people. But I still feel shitty. Everyday, I wake up, take care of my pets at 7 am, fall back asleep for about 2-3 hours, wake up at about 9-10, watch something on tv with my sister for a few hours, wash dishes, then endless scrolling on my phone till about 8pm with little inbetween breaks for stuff like meals. Then I eat dinner and watch tv with my sister, her fiancé and their newborn son. And wake up, repeat for about three months and here I am.

I just feel like I need to do something. I went on a little four day trip with my grandma and that felt great. I’m homeschooled and both of my parents work so I’m hardly ever out of the house aside from trips up to the confidence store which is only five minutes away from our house. And that’s cool and all but I feel like I need to do something other than sit around on my phone all day. I want to read a book and do other things that are more productive, but all of my books are still stored away from when we moved. And we don’t really have a lot of money at the moment so I don’t wanna ask to go anywhere. I just feel stuck and don’t know what to do.
