A title long enough to satisfy sw

I've been feel a bit melancholic lately. Not as bad as things have been in the past, but bad enough to cause discomfort. Like the better my life has gotten and the more I've gotten into a better state of mind, the less familiar everything's become and the more I feel like I'm missing a big part of me.

I guess what I'm saying is that I've been so depressed for so long that now that my life has improved I feel lost - it's like I've lost something within me that I've had for so long it feels like I'm having to start over again with my life.

Does any of that make sense?

Total sense.
I try telling myself, “yesterday’s failures are gone. So I’ll start again each moment”. But start what? And in a moment, my energy is gone. Start where? And start what? Lol. Does THAT make any sense? I have a job. My life is okay. I sometimes wish it was more meaningful. Maybe I’m comparing myself to the media??? Subtly? I thought I knew better than that… hmm. So, yeah. Perspective******** And it’s hard when my health doesn’t match my mind. That’s why I’m here a lot lately. But yes, things are better. In a personal level, but the news is full of hurting filling that hurt others.

Yeah, it makes sense. There's also a song about feeling that way.

@Redstar I haven't listened to them in so long.

@KiwiDan Now's a good time to start again, cause they have a new album coming out next month. I hope this song gets a music video:

I've felt that. It's likely because of any new changes in your life. Things still feel off for a while until it settles as the new normal. It also can remind you of other changes that you want to make in your life which can throw you off too. 🤗
