[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - I've NEVER felt this way before.  I have always been super motivated. Don't get me wrong, I'm not depressed at all. I'm pretty happy. I am very interested in traveling and planning vacations as well as team tennis. On the weekends I like to go out to lunch and dinner with family and friends. It's not like I'm a recluse but I just don't care that much about a lot of other things. [/quote]
This is me exactly.  55 years old.

The past 2 years, I just don't gos about work.  My youngest is finishing their college apps, and all of us can't wait for that to be completed.

The only thing that excites me is traveling.  I'm at my most happiest when traveling.  It doesn't even have to be international travel.    Even just driving from place to place makes me happy.

I used to love to garden, but my garden now looks awful. I have to go out there and pull the plants from the summer that are now all dead, but I don't want to do it.  I don't mind meeting up with friends and family, but I only want to meet up with a select few friends.

I do think I'm a bit depressed.  I'm thinking of going on SSRI or something.[/quote]

I feel this way, except I’m 47 and don’t even want to travel. It just sounds like so much effort.

I wonder if estrogen will help?[/quote]
