I think I'm becoming a hermit

I think I may have posted about this before. I feel like I'm becoming a hermit. Cuz when I was drinking and doing drugs I was always out, always had someone to talk to, always had "friends." And now? I go to class, go to work, and go home. I watch TV or hang out here.

Even when I am invited out I don't want to go. I want to stay at my house, alone. I do the minimum level of social interaction possible. I find myself getting very short with people when I actually leave my house. I might call my mom, talk to my bf on the phone for 10 minutes tops, and that's it.

Is this normal? I feel like I'm crazy. I feel bored and discontent that I don't leave my house much, but when I am presented with the opportunity I don't have the energy to go out or the patience to deal with people. I am starting to alienate my friends, I think, and I have to force myself even to spend an hour out with them somewhere for dinner.
