I can certainly relate to how you're feeling. I am a bookworm, when I have time, and I love knowing a little bit about everything. After college I felt really scattered because I had so much responsibility being a single mom after my divorce and couldn't get the "intellectual stimulation" anymore ( and still struggle with it!). I was literally craving the mind stimulation! I started getting books from the library on subjects that I'd always had an interest in, but didn't know anything about. I also sought out discussion groups that seemed of interest to me at the time. I still get in those modes where I need to read, read, read and learn about things and a few years ago I took some classes online. I'm the type that can sit up all night and talk about deep subjects. Depending on what you're interests are, maybe check into volunteering somewhere that deals with something you like or want to learn more about. I joined a poetry group once, a spiritual discussion and drumming group, a women's barber shop singing group, etc. If it didn't seem my thing after trying it, I moved on. I'm into feeding my soul more now than I am about spending my days doing things that don't make me happy. If my soul's not fed, I don't feel like I can really be there and positive for my family and I don't feel like I'm living a genuine life. It really took me looking internally at what my desires were that I maybe never really pursued because of everyday expected responsibilites. Best of luck!
