    I'm going to try and make the as short as possible, however, i have a couple of questions regarding a few things about myself which you may be able to help me with.

    Let me start by saying that i am in no way depressed or do i feel sad or down for any extended period of time so i know it has nothing to do with depression, but i feel like my whole perspective on life has suddenly changed, well, not suddenly but within the last year, more so the last 6 months.

    Here's where i think it gets interesting and many people may link it to depression but i have no doubt in my mind that i am in no way depressed, i have lost interest in most of the things i used to do...I used to really enjoy movies, now i can't even get into them, i used to enjoy buying things like movies, random stuff just to spend my money.

    I haven't bought a movie in atleast a year now, i haven't enjoyed a movie in atleast a year, that is just one example of something i used to enjoy which i now don't, i haven't bought a "materialistic" item in a while now either.

    I do now however enjoy all of the smaller things in life such as nature. I have been reading up alot lately on psychedelics, and plan on using them in the very near future, i am very interested in expanding my mind, I have been using Marijuana for a while now, however i haven't had any in a while but i have always loved using it, and my thought processes while on Marijuana, i feel it's something special. I also enjoy reading up on all of this sort of stuff, Psychedelics etc.

    I would rather now just go out into the bush and go for a walk on my own and be with my thoughts and friends (birds, trees, bugs etc)

    There's nothing i can think of which triggered this, but i just seem to have removed myself from the person i used to be and many of the values i used to appreciate, i used to be your average joe guy, sort of conforming to the system if you will, but now, i have no interest what so ever of being apart of society and would rather be what you might call "a free man on the land"

    As well as this, nothing seems to bother me anymore, i take everything as it comes, i haven't been stressed in a long time, i just don't care, i feel like i am just going through life peacefully.

    I hope this makes sense, i am just a little confused as to how and why this may have happened, i love the path i am heading on and think i have a much better life ahead, but i have no idea why i suddenly changed.

    Hopefully you are not too confused, any comments, opinions are appreciated.

    Sounds like you woke up... Congratulations! Does it really matter what triggered it?

    I agree with Tyrsonswood.

    Better to just embrace the change within your self and use it positively rather than try and work it out. It's all very simple, if you find out what the trigger was, it'll come to you and you might be surprised!

    Live in your moment buddy :daisy:

    How old are you?

    I think most people change within themselves every 7 years or so.
    Are you in your early twenties?
    Maybe this is the first time you are aware of a change within yourself.

    I think you got bored and burnt out. Life shifts like this. Maybe some make a move, or get a new job, or leave their marriage.....sounds like you did so in the middle of your mind.
     
  6. You saw the light my sweet ;) Life is truly not about material stuff, it's about seeing the beauty and worth of everything around you.
