Title: where do you even begin if you feel disconnected from yourself?

I've been thinking about how much my life changed once I started really getting to know myself better — not just what I like or don’t like, but how I react under pressure, what triggers certain emotions, and what I actually need instead of what I think I want. It’s wild how self-discovery seems to change everything. But sometimes I wonder — where do you even begin if you feel disconnected from yourself?

Hey, I feel you on that. For a long time, I was living kind of… mindlessly. Doing the same things, reacting the same way, and not even questioning if it was me or just habits I picked up. What helped me was realizing that self-discovery isn’t about having all the answers right away — it’s about noticing small patterns and being curious about them. Like, asking why I shut down during conflict or why I feel drained around certain people. It was actually this post from Liven that hit home for me liven — it talks about self-knowledge giving you daily choices. That’s when it clicked. You start recognizing how your mind works and then gradually shift things. Not big overhauls, just little shifts. Author: morrowine Time: The day before yesterday 02:39
I love that idea of small shifts. It's so true — we often think we need a big epiphany to grow, but it’s usually the little insights, the quiet ones, that change how we move through the world. Just being more aware of your reactions already creates space for something new.
