Wow yeah.. I was in a similar situation. I feel inspired, motivated, encouraged, stronger, happier, ecstatic like never before! I became interested in my old hobbies again and started new hobbies.. explored new opportunities.. I'm not afraid to try new things now and I'm excited to meet new people. I want to play the piano again and I want to get into guitaring (electric and acoustic) and I want to just sing and learn how to dance.
Lmao and I'm just more open about my interests (him included) to my friends and family now.. regardless of what they say.
I've been stressed out and frustrated on the other hand though.. despite the excitement. People have been putting me down or discouraging me. I don't want to let that get in the way of me.. finally doing something I want to do.. doing things for myself.. and enjoying life. This is a chance for me to take a huge responsibility and make my own decisions. It's definitely life-changing.
