You're in your own bedroom, surrounded by familiar things, yet you feel deeply homesick. Not for another place, but for something you can't name. Neuroscience reveals why this happens. Research on existential homesickness shows that your hippocampus and anterior cingulate cortex create conflict when the emotional context of home changes while the physical space stays the same. You're not missing a location—you're missing a version of yourself, a configuration of relationships, or a sense of belonging that used to exist in this exact space. This isn't depression or nostalgia; it's your brain recognizing that home is built from meaning, not walls, and meaning constantly changes. This video explores the neuroscience behind feeling displaced at home, the Welsh concept of hiraeth, the difference between healthy grief and unhealthy romanticization of the past, and why this experience indicates emotional sophistication rather than dysfunction. If you've ever felt like a stranger in your own space, this explains why you're not broken—you're just aware that true home is something you continuously create.
