How long did it take for you to feel connected with reality & people again?
I know everyone has a different timeline but I wonder how long it takes for you to truly get out of the “disconnected” stage. I think the prolonged isolation is the main reason why this feeling is even more intense at times. Removing myself from my friends and my old job were the main reasons I was able to quit smoking and never look back
I’m in the process of finding a new job and trying to be more social & i think time is truly all i need in order to feel like my old self again but right now the disconnected feeling is really strong and I don’t even know how to describe the feeling. The consequences of smoking is scary, but i think the consequences of isolation might be even worse which is what I’m currently experiencing. What are some things that helped you feel connected with life again?
