So I make decisions that will lead to a path of happiness, I look at my life through questions like "what do I want my life to be like in X years?". I wanted to be a software developer so I've been studying CS formally for 2 years now and I'll be changing careers in either 12 or 24 months depending on some factors. I put in more efforts to maintain a social network. I'm introverted and really enjoy time by myself but I realise that I'm actually happier when I spend time regularly with friends. The difference between solitude and alone is determined by if you want to be by yourself. I was enjoying solitude until I was diagnosed, then I suddenly felt alone. I don't have anxiety anymore. This wasn't deliberate, I simply stopped worrying about things after the whole cancer scare. I'm alive and healthy, so even if things go bad then I'm still in a better spot than I could be.
