+1. This is exactly how I feel! I have been retired for 13 months but cant get over this anxiety. Any tips from Seniors who have been retired long?

I have traveled a LOT for past 13months and tell people I am taking a career break. To friends and family at home I just tell them I’ve started consulting again doing the same thing as before to keep them away from bothering me or taking advantage of my free time and asking for financial help. I traveled a lot when I was working so it fits in well with my answers.
