Kristine Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 I did what I needed to do today, got quite a bit done actually. However I feel like I have too much time to sit around and do nothing right now. It's making me restless. I need conversation or something. 1
NoMoreJerks Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 I know the feeling. I mean, I have stuff to do, but I am more on a flexible schedule work-wise (university student, work for professor doing research),so I end up obsessing about my ex all day long, and not getting any work done, and can't get my act together, because that can "wait". I have been obsessing about my ex for 24/24 hrs over the past 2 weeks.I can't even sleep. It's become more like a drug addiction problem, I swear. I need to go out and do stuff, but I don't feel I have enough energy, cos I am depressed about this. Plus, when I go out, I don't enjoy it, and plus, I don't have a lot of friends and a lot of activities to do. I don't want to go down the "go to pub and drink on your own" route since Ive done that before when my other ex left me, and I did things I am not interested in doing again in the wake of THIS break-up (one night stands). The other ex was a douche, so I could totally envision myself with another man. Not this time, though. 1
wlh22 Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 I am exactly in the same boat. So I also want to hear from experts. I know the feeling.

Author Kristine Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 Well I decided to call my best friend. We talked an hour, while I paced around the house. I feel better, and she offered a few suggestions. I need to volunteer, she thinks for seniors, doing stuff with my music. Sing, play piano, etc. Makes me super nervous to perform honestly, but I do like the idea of doing something with seniors. I can't really do anything overly physical and I truly enjoy music. 1
15Love Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 I wonder if it's something in the air! I feel exactly the same as you guys! Restless! Addicted. Miserable. Not glad you all are in it too, but glad I'm not alone 2

chapter44 Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 I like the idea of you volunteering. I read a quote a long time ago that really inspired me: "the best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others" Sometimes when we get outside of our own lives we find a new appreciation for all that we have. Congrats on your way of thinking.
