Some people kind of encouraged me to "get outside my own shell" more. I've tried to. And once outside my own shell, I realized all the senses and feelings I experienced. It was like I was becoming an empath, opening myself up that much, and with all the emotions and insecurities that come with it.
I actually prefer the comfort of my shell, and I'm kind of trying to go back to that now - while still learning what works, what doesn't, in life, and not going back to old mistakes and old ideas which are proven incorrect. But still keeping the shell part of it.
I think I just pushed myself out of my shell too soon and too fast, as well.... I've really been incorporating myself into society a bit more lately, taking on tasks for others, attempting teamwork in other parts of my life, and I found it stressful.
I have since cut back, and realized, maybe being a little reserved and "to myself" is okay sometimes.
About my "leaving / taking a break" thread I made a few days ago - I may explain more about things later, but at the time, I was feeling a bit emotional due to all the different tasks I was taking on in life - not all of them RF - but I felt I was making my life too crammed and full to the point where, despite things going in my opinion pretty good, I wasn't enjoying things, or stopping to smell the roses. I have since cut back. Whether that allows me more time for RF, we'll see.
