What's that tired old phrase? Something about being lonely in a crowded room.
It might be a bit of a downer, too, that your favorite hideout is no longer just yours. Maybe you thought of it as some extension of yourself, a hideout in my brain that you can go to by going to that place.
It's hard to battle against food and form. I used to exercise a lot, but got sick and couldn't anymore; then I found out that losing weight is really only 20% of the fight. Eighty percent is diet itself. But I lost a lot of weight, then I gained all of it back (plus some extra) and no one has understood that struggle, either, from being one shape and then another, and the short span of time in which it happened. It can really mess with the head.
Once you start packing up and really get underway with the move, you'll have something else to focus on. It could be that the bridge you speak of is just what you have to cross right now... the nowhere land between what you accomplished (getting a new job), and the future action that will get you to your new job.
For the nonce, it's always best to turn to what you love... like writing or just words in general. Laying out the pirouettes of one's brain into prose can be beneficial. And plus you get comments from those of us who read it.
