Nothing is going wrong, but something feels “off”

I (28M) started to make an “Am I the only one…” post, but ironically, I saw a post that said, “If you think you are, then you’re DEFINITELY not. Stop rage baiting.”

That being said, I’m in a space in life right now where everything seems to be going right—job, apartment, I’m financially manageable (I won’t say I’m well off, but the bills are more than paid). I’d say I pretty much came from next to nothing, so I’m proud of that.

For more context, I had a pretty rough ‘24. I pretty much felt like I was underneath the mountain.

I’m pretty tight with my siblings (6 brothers, 1 sister). I have no real family issues that I care about enough to really make me feel like I’m in a weird place mentally. I’m certain that there are people that love me, even if it’s not many, friends and family alike.

However, I constantly come in and out of this state of feeling like, I’m “missing” (overlooking) something, or like a shoe is about to drop—like suddenly I’ll wake up and be back at square one. Like something just feels off, but I couldn’t explain it for the life of me.

TL;DR - In a weird space in life where everything is going good, but something mentally feels off, or one step away from undoing everything. Family, Job, Relationships all good.
