That kinda thing happened to me, so I called all my friends and we just messed about and did stupid things and had fun, we went on kids bouncy castles, shopping, tryed on ridiculous outfits, and loads of other stuff... childish but fun! You should try doing something similar :).
Play video games wether it's smash bros brawl or farmville talk to friends often if you have a bathtub take a warm bath take walks my mom bakes to relieve stress but it can also make you stressed lol yeah glad I could help.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest.
