I believe everyone's journey is different -- there is no normal. If you feel this is part of an inner shift process, keep embracing it. The rest of you will catch up to your heart when they are ready. I isolated myself into a massive hole during my journey. I think I'm peeking my butterfly head out of that cocoon now. Difficult though it may be, sometimes you gotta clear out the old to make space for the new. I'm finding the new includes regeneration of some of the old in stronger, healthier ways. Keep doing the good work to bust yourself out of that cocoon at your own pace.
