I hear you, Reet. I really do.

I had a mc in September last year and after that I basically became a hermit. Not long after my mc my DH had to go to England for a week or two and two days before he left I lost my job, and I honestly don't think I left the house for more than 5 mins at a time during the whole time he was away.

I lost touch with everyone, and not knowing many people in Melbourne to start with that was really hard! My friends did try to reconnect for a while but I was just not ready emotionally.

Now I'm pregnant and that isn't a stage of life that any of our friends are at. I have reconnected with them in a sense, but I've found I don't have anything in common with them and I prefer to just spend time with my DH, or even alone, which I've always hated. My life is being at home and two mornings a week at uni, and even at uni I have lost touch with the friends I made... I just feel so disconnected.

That said, I'm also strangely content if that makes sense?!

Don't beat yourself up about not wanting to do anything. I was like that until probably 16 or 17 weeks when I started feeling better and its different for everyone! We do go out and do more now, but I've become very much a homebody and even though I have times where I feel lonely and disconnected I'm also okay with it
