I thank you all for your adive but for this guy and what he says

I think he should just shut up and go whine on something more personal like AIM or MSN, instead of posting this here.

Dude, You don't dig Watching Anime anymore GOOD FOR YOU! that means that you've reached a new stage in life, May I suggest a few other tidbits of advice as well,

Stop visiting anime boards,

stop downloading/editing/ or watching amv's, hell delete the ones you have, (burn on CD if you really want, but clear your HD)

DONT sell your DVDs thats pointless unless you really need the money.

and most important.... GO DO SOMETHING ELSE!

if within a few months nostalgia doesn't kick in and make you watch it again then even better, money to spend on another hobby that you DO have interest in in this part of your life. (then maybe you can sell your dvds)
he obvisaly doesnt understand anime that much. been with me my whole life and its a big shame to let it go, just trying to get by the phaaase and wanting to know if anyone else has encourted it b4 and want some advice on how to get by, and i aint whining about it, its just been a big part of my life man. dont know if your trying to help out or not but it doesnt matter, i can all the info i need

Also true, I don't know you or your life story, that's pretty much the main reason its incredibly difficult for me to be sympathetic at all about your "dilemma"

My condolences to you if anime has been a big part of your life or value system. It's not even a tiny fraction in mine; though it is a noteably large fraction of my entertainment.

And oh, by the way, entertainment. Perhaps you forgot what that word means, and why watching anime is, and can only be, a means of entertainment (with rare professional exceptions).

Otherwise... bored but don't want to quite (though perhaps you should)? Switch genres/styles, look where you wouldn't have looked before. You don't know how many gems I found practically by means of strange coincidence lately, and would never have expected myself to like until I actually saw them (should I even mention the fact that I discovered my current favorite by being tipped off that a favorite musician of mine whose music I used in an AMV did the ending theme for the anime?).

Even though I'm a newbie, this is my advice.
Play anime related video games. That way you get to control their fate. *laffs evily*

If you can show me how, I'll add to the x-mas spirit
I can claim the title as being the first person on a-m-v.org to submit an AMV with the artist KJ-52 on it. Yay. Hahaha.
Where my jello? I need it to go with my Cola, Rice, Puddin, Steak, macoroni, apple, peanut butter, plastic, baking soda, and cheese sandwhich!

Music artist being David Sylvian (tied for my favorite singer from well before I saw that anime), you know from which AMV;
and the anime beingthe currently-running Monster, which is about as different from any other anime as things get (to be fair, it feels very live-action-y and realistic for anime).

And I even found the MP3 of the TV version of the ending on David's own website!

For The Love of Life

Series info, for posterity...
