[SIZE="a"]Life changed for me in 2019. Ever since then, every aspect of my life, school, work, family, friends, values, goals etc., has been re-evaluated.

For a while, I felt lost and depressed. I'm feeling like I've got a bit more direction in my life, though I'm still not out of the woods just yet.

I've been going over things from childhood and realised that a lot of things I used to do, I no longer do. I'd like to get back to that.

Equally, there are things in my life now that I'm not sure I want in my life anymore. I don't know whether to cut down or cut them out of my life completely. I just don't feel it anymore. It feels like the novelty has worn off in some ways?

For example, I have a friend I hang out with sometimes but it feels like it's the same thing over and over again and the things I'd like to do, my friend wouldn't be up for. I've also realised we value different things in life. But nothing is actually wrong, my friend isn't bad or abusive. But I feel a bit checked out. I get messages and don't want to reply, or feel that we don't have much in common or that they are only friends with me out of convenience.

It's difficult to figure out if this is due to depression (which I was diagnosed with in 2019) or if I'm just naturally out growing things?[/size]
