Moving from Existing to Living

Anyone know how to move from just vaguely existing to actually living? Since apparently I won't be ending things anytime soon, I'm wondering how I move from this feeling of apathy all day, every day to maybe enjoying things. But even the things I used to really enjoy I don't anymore, I just do then to distract my brain. I'm not sure why or how that happened. Any and all ideas welcomed.

It's a process and doesn't happen quickly. I had a wake up call and realized I was miserable and unhappy because I wasn't living for myself. For the last 3 years I've been facing my abusive past and current present choices, and I made alot of changes. It started with therapy and I have been working hard to find what makes me happy what makes me live with joy- still looking-..I must be making some progress, I don't feel like I need to run from my life anymore... I'm still a work in progress but I'm trying....I removed the toxic things from my life,some ppl, a horrible job, and cleaned up finances. I started asking family for things I needed instead of me doing everything their way. I don't do what is expected, I do what I want with respect of course. I hope my post helps in some way..💜 ABB
