Sounds just like me. I think I've felt something after recently going overseas when a cousin invited me to a wedding. It got me out of my isolationist ways after spending time with relatives away from the computer and television and I went back to work a month later and found it rather difficult to hold all my thoughts inside. Before the wedding I barely even talked to my mother, but we chat a lot more now.

I feel like I was maladjusted growing up, especially when I started highschool. Our class was transferred to the second school, then my parents went my a thousand kilometers away to live in an all boys boarding school for a couple of years. I peed in my sleep quite regularaly at this time, and snored loudly as quite a few others kept reminding me. Then my dad got cancer, so I was moved to my fourth school in the city, then came the school I graduated from when he finally died. I didn't fully appreciate my shitty luck at the time, but I feel pretty pleased with myself for surviving all that without developing some depression or social anxiety mental health problem with just my mother for support. I'm just about over it now. Think this is something I care about enough to maybe pursue a career in, maybe study psychology or child care or something like that...
