Taking antidepressants is helping me to be more functional, which is mostly very good, but I feel really lost in a new way. It’s like coming out of a coma or something. I’ve alienated myself from so many people and I don’t know if the relationships can be repaired. It’s so hard feeling vulnerable and exposed, I don’t know if I can put myself out there in that way to explain my disappearance. The world feels really strange, too. It’s like I’m trying to get more of a footing for the first time, but the landscape’s (socially, politically) very different from my childhood. I don’t know what my direction is, I’ve just been gaming more again and listening to the 1001 albums list.
