It's been almost 9 months since leaving my last long-term relationship, and I have been using that time to introspect and better myself. I developed discipline in my daily life, I eat healthy, work out often, go to therapy, I have been performing well at work. I have been consistent in developing new skills and interests. My social life is doing fine.
I experienced some sort of " high" a few months post-breakup where I felt like I had everything figured out, and was excited about all the possibilities my leveling up journey had to offer. Now I just feel jaded, sort of burned out despite doing all the right things. I just feel like, now what ? What happens now ? I thought this feeling would pass quickly, but it has been lingering for a while now.
Has anybody gone through something similar ? How did you manage to recover motivation ?
Thanks for sharing this, and I'm sorry you're feeling that! For me such feelings are usually pointing to something existential, and reconnecting with nature and my spirituality offer a renewed sense of meaning and purpose. Are you spiritual or religious at all? Or even open to meditation, yoga, tarot, astrology, nature, etc.? I find connecting to things bigger than myself is most important when things feel stale.
