Feeling adrift at the minute, and not liking it.

There seems to be a whole lot happening around me these days, and I'm feeling more and more like I'm reacting to it (badly) instead of actively participating in it. I feel like a bystandard in my own life. Recently, I can't seem to shake the feeling I have that I'm drifting along, but I don't know what to do about it. All I want to do is stay home and read.
