Quick intro:

A few years back I had a bad breakup. I was already unhappy with most things in my life, and the break up dropped me even lower. After a little bit of self-hate I knew, I had to do something.

I wanted to do all the things I wished I could do. I did all the things I had always wanted to do. Learned to play guitar, studied Japanese, started a club, martial arts, worked on my health, become very extroverted.

My largest goal was to go study abroad in Japan. I have worked as this for quite some time now, studying the language working through the paper work nightmares of Education Abroad Office. In the end, I was accepted and on April 3ed, I will leave America for one year to study in Tokyo, Japan.

My problem:

Now that I am set to go, I feel… almost depressed. I cannot seem to study anymore, and just feel an over all feeling of “Bleh”. I do not question my desire to go, but am feeling down about my recent inability to study, it is going to hurt me once I arrive.

I have been keeping to myself a little more, but still go to the gym almost every day. I also hang out with friends when I can. Therefore, I am not typically depressed.

I feel very tired, I think after all the work involved to get to this point I am exhausted.

Anyhow, any thoughts comments or advice is welcome, thanks for hearing me out.
