Stress levels around retirement
I know this topic has been asked about relentlessly but I was hoping for some more specific guidance.
I’m semi retired now, self employed and pulling the plug entirely by the end of the summer.
Stress levels the last couple of weeks have gone crazy. I’m not naturally or normally high strung but I’m waking up in the middle of the night, panic attacks beginning, it’s ludicrous.
As some background, money is not a concern. I’m 25% over my retirement money nest egg goal and living overseas with a 25% lower cost of living.
I also don’t have time for work as my hobbies can easily be ramped up and will be.
I think it’s the lack of control (I’m guessing though). Either it’s Lack of control of my finances or that I’m now a bystander to life.
Anybody else have similar experiences?
