I feel like I can't make a decision & stick to it. Or really feel the same way about something consistently. Like I think/feel too many different ways about the same thing. I never end up figuring out how I feel.

I feel abit like I'm floating through life, somewhat disconnected a lot of the time. Like life's not enough. I spend much of my time in my head but my thoughts are usually very confusing & conflicting, it makes me anxious & agitated.

I know I need to learn to just accept the dysphoric feelings & work on mindfulness, but I'm finding it very hard. Since having stopped my meds just over 6 weeks ago I feel like my shrunken emotions are expanding again. The vice hold lithium, & I'm fairly sure both ADs I took, caused a fair amount of emotional blunting. I thought the withdrawal from the meds would resolve my ambivalence but it hasn't.

How do I combat cognitive dissonance?
