Feeling Lost, Can Anyone Relate?

I've been feeling like my faith has been tested this month like never before.

Everything is ok, I've just felt lost or like I'm losing myself, my old self. 

My old self is dying and a new and improved version is taking its place.

Can anyone relate to this feeling?

It's extremely uncomfortable while you're going through it.

It's like a caterpillar going through metamorphosis but not yet a butterfly.

It feels like my old self is dying and I'm grieving and completely out of my comfort zone.

I know this will ultimately turn out good but it hasn't felt like that.

It's felt like the exact opposite.

Clouds and rain that just go on and on.

I'm ready for the sunshine!

Anyone else go through this and can relate?

Please comment with encouragement to get me through.

Thank you.

It feels odd/when it is happening but when you get to the new you you will not remember this part.

It's uncanny how I was just feeling exactly this!

I do like where I'm headed, but I've made so much progress it feels like I'm disconnected from a part of myself. It's a bitter-sweet feeling. I miss being a little more normal and quiet, because now I can't seem to turn the words off. It can be hard sometimes to see it as progress. I hold onto hope for the future and trust this is just part of nature's course.
