Chambers

I 25 F am feeling lonely for the first time in my life but I don't get why. I have a wonderful boyfriend, supportive family, great friends and a wonderful job. I feel unhappy with my life. And I don't know why.

I 25 F just had the craziest year of my life. Finished law school and got an amazing job in a big city in another state. I moved away from my home state and left my family and friends behind. I was excited for this new chapter of my life but also really scared to live in a new place with no family or friends. My family was kind of sad about me moving but at the same time they were excited for me. I was kind of nervous about living 700 miles away from home but I was also really excited about this new chapter of my life. I left my old life behind and moved to a new place and 6 months later I have a great job, a wonderful boyfriend and amazing friends. I kind of feel like this chapter of my life is everything for me. I feel really lonely even though I have an amazing life and I don't get why. I kind of feel like I made a huge mistake moving away but at the same time I feel like I did the right thing. I also feel kind of unhappiness and I don't get why. I just feel empty even though I have an amazing life. I feel like I'm living to work hard kind of but I think that's normal for the legal profession. Am I feeling lonely because of the pandemic? I just don't get why I feel unhappy when I have a great life. I'm also feeling like my life is only about work and that I'm living only to work hard. And I kind of feel like I'm overworking myself to the point that it's affecting my mental health. <br> <br>I don't know if I'm feeling unhappy because I'm overworking and kind of destroying my mental health or because of the pandemic or what. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.<br> <br>Tldr I 25 F moved away and started a new life as a lawyer and I'm kind of feeling unhappy and lonely even though I have an amazing life and I don't get why.
