I’m hoping I’ve hit normal myself. It would be for the first time in my life (for more than a day or so), as I had a horrible childhood and mental illness constantly ever since. This is why I, like you, am struggling to know if what I am feeling now is ‘normal’ or the authentic ‘me’. I feel calm, content, react emotionally in an appropriate manner to situations, feel joy( not euphoric), can concentrate better, deal with the finer details of life better, find it easy chatting to strangers or people like the owners of the deli across the road - so many things have changed. It’s amazing. And wonderful. I do fear it disappearing, but no panic and a lot of hope.

I really hope this is your normal and that you get to enjoy life as you deserve. I wish you the best.
