I was wound pretty tight by the time I retired. I was doing the work of several people. It took me about a year and a half to spool down. Maybe it'll be better for you, I certainly hope so. As I mentioned, I have hobbies. My wife's friends go nuts when their executive type husbands retire because they never had any hobbies. So they follow the wives around, for lack of anything better to do- watching them cook, stuff like that.

My wife & I both retired 2 years ago. I will be 60 next month 9-11-2020! I have loved every second of it. We both got 40 years with the same company. They paid us both 1 years worth of salary and 6 months of insurance. We took our 401ks and invested it. So far so good. Wife will be 61 in Jan 2021.
I don't know how I had time to work!
