From my experience, I too think you are going through a healing process. I find I may be introspective, not necessarily depressed when I need that time for me and I don't particularly want to be out and about. Mixed with the pain in a grieving process,I think there is some positives too in the self discovery. I think it is good that you are aware of your feelings and if you find yourself sinking into depression, I'd encourage seeing your doctor. But from your post, you sound more content with your own company...and to me that is working on self love which leads to the ability to truly care for and about others. Hugs.
