I heard re-orienting after retirement isn’t always easy.
Way way harder than I thought. A month in I felt guilty about feeling weird. I mean, hey, I get a pension for rest of my life. I’m still young (early 50’s), fit and healthy. This should be awesome! I can shitpost on Lemmy all day!
But ugh, I miss the kids, co-workers, etc. I have an active social life, but it’s not the same as having good solid co-workers going thru the trenches with ya. I have my own business now, so that’s relieved some of the weirdness of not working, so we’ll see.
I would never in a million years thought being retired would feel weird. But yep, it’s strange till ya find your footing.
