Do you feel your military service has made you lose sight of who you really are as a person since or near retirement?

I am a little over 18 1/2 years active right now and am looking to retire at 22 years of service. My question is do you feel that you lost yourself as a person while being in the military? Like once you get out if for example you don't talk about military life do you feel you lost the rest of what made you, you? I was just trying to see if anyone nearing retirement or retired have or had these types of thoughts?
