I can’t keep up with conversations
I’ve mentally been going through an intense detachment phase. I’ve spent less time talking to anyone other than a few of my siblings and my partner. I can’t keep up with conversations as I have nothing to say most times and I generally have nothing going on in my life.

This has been going on for a few months now and I can’t exactly get to the cause of it. I haven’t exactly had a lot of work to do so I can’t blame it on being busy. I’ve simply lost interest in most people.
Thankfully, my lack of interest in people hasn’t stopped them from caring about me as I got a whole lot of support from friends and family at the launch of my YouTube channel. I had a lot more messages and support from people than I could have ever anticipated and that gave me the much-needed boost.
Not only that, a friend of mine also recommended me for a job. It was the most unexpected thing for me last night. We’re still in the stage of discussing the details of the project, however, I’m excited by the prospect.
The project is simply an e-commerce site for people in the UK. Most of the work has already been done, however, they plan on expanding to add a few new features so they need someone to work on them and maybe make some edits to the already existing site.
I think it’ll be an interesting job if I do get it. The site is quite basic as it is and I can already imagine the kind of changes I could make on it. I can also imagine how much I’ll be charging for it too.
I have my worries about working for a very picky employer but I’m pretty sure it’s something I’ll be able to scale through if I get awarded the job. I’m excited and apprehensive at the same time.
That being said, I’m looking forward to it with an open mind. I’ll be sending over my thoughts and bill and hopefully, if the client accepts, I’ll have a lot more things to occupy my time. Fingers crossed.
I am going through a similar phase and I understand you completely. It is very frustrating at times. Big hug!
Thank you. I hope we get through it soon!
Talking to only a few close relations can be worrying because it can affect someone when those people are not around. I pray your client approve the job and pay your high.
Thankfully, they're always around and available for now but I'll have to expand my circle soon. I got the job from the client, not a high pay but it's good enough so far. Thanks for the comment.
Maybe step out of your bubble. it is all in our heads most times (mainly because that is where we spent most of our time these days either them with people we care about or doing the things we love)
I try to do that once a month except last month so I guess that's why it has been pretty bad. But I'll be travelling to a different State soon, so hopefully it'll bring me back to reality
I didn't know you launched a YT channel. I'm calling you nowww
Sometimes we go through these phases of socialization and social isolation haha. Glad that it also timed with potentially a new job!
