After returning from my first long term exploration track to SAG A. I took a long break and increased my trading and combat ranks. I needed a good month off as the crazies were getting to me from being out to long in the black. I made Ranger rank with my last journey and I am plotting an even longer stay "months" this time hoping to make elite. I hate neutron farming so its the long hard way for me. I'm only 2k out into the black on this trip but cant help shake that feeling of its not to late to turn back. Do I really want to spend the next 3 months in no mans land? I know from my last journey this passes around the 10k marker out from the bubble. Am I the only one that has that second thought syndrome?
Starting out on my second long term deployment into the black! oh what a feeling.

I think part of the reason I haven't stayed out longer yet is because of Fear Of Missing Out, but that's rapidly going away, as nothing else new and interesting to me has materialized in a while. I'm actually looking forward to embarking on a long voyage out in the black very soon for that reason. And also, probably as a twilight cruise for my T6 before I upgrade.
I would say is more like a muscle that you exercise.
First time you really do not expect to be as big as it is and thus you always think is going to be quicker.
But after that's learned and is passed, the following expeditions are easier and easier as you know now, what kind of time and effort we are talking about here.
Yes, it can get lonely and yes, at times you want to throw everything off! But this time, I predict, you wont feel it at the 10k mark...but much, much farther...
I just spent over 3 months in the deep blue. If it wasn't because my home system was in distress, which made me pick up the pace and come straight from the GA, I would probably be still out there.
Godspeed CMDR!
