Feeling Neither Here Nor There

Have you ever had the feeling that you are not quite sure whether you are here or there? I mean for a long time I have been used to living on my own. I couple of returning bouts of anxiety did throw me but basically everything was all right as long as things went along quietly and peacefully. This odd feeling now is like I am not sure where I should be. Never happened to me before and I am not sure how to take it. I do my usual routines but still, I cannot figure it out. That sort of wandering feeling about where do I really belong.

I hear that, my last 10 years have been like that, but to be fair was my decision. Where it sucks for people like you is your hand was forced. I hope things get better but not sure they are. Sad but true, I do not see much of anything I like. The lack of how people do not care is what scares me more than anything. I do not get scared by much in this world but the world has changed in a bad way.

I am basically a loner but current restrictions due to the virus are playing with my head and I am sure it does with everyone else. You and I know 'this' too will pass.

I think you should take ten minutes to do some breathing exercises. You can find them in YouTube guided meditations or such. Then, remember to focus on now. Not the past nor the future, but right now. We cannot control everything. It is normal to have these feelings especially for me but I always have to remind myself to take things one day at a time. Sending you positive vibes!

Maybe there is some place else you are meant to be but maybe it will pass.

@RasmaSandra Do you have a support network in either place? That is really important.

Actually lately I have been thinking I would have been better off staying in Latvia @BelleStar and before that, all I could think of was to get back to the states

It's probably better not to be judgemental, or too hasty, in wanting to change it, with such a feeling.
Just sit with it a while, and see what else develops. Be kind to yourself, and realise feelings are just feelings.
Maybe, it will take longer for what is behind the feelings to come out from behind them. So, staying with the feeling for a while might be a good idea too.

@rasmasandra I’m like that a lot of the time. When people ask where I’m from I hesitate and must look quite foolish. Too many possible answers.
