I feel alive when I'm bored and I've been bored for a long time. So long as there is some change in the environment (in other words, I'm just bored because of a lack of something to do, not because my environment seems to be monotonous), then I feel alive because I have nothing to focus on but myself.

Also when I'm having fun, but that's a different kind of alive. I might elaborate on this later and edit this if I find time today.
