yes all of this yes

That's what I've been telling people! I'm glad it makes sense hahaha

It all makes sense now.😅

I don't really care or feel about anything in my teenagers, now I'm in my 20s and felt like everything's is falling apart, fml

In puberty, I've been doing lots of things for the first time as a teenager. Now I'm doing things for the first time as a young adult. Just as challenging as it was before, same cake but different box.

Yeah It was something worth sitting on for me but like he said start focusing on what you have so you can have more

That's what many people do with many of us who are autistic. We like to focus on stuff we know we can do or just like to do, and not doing stuff others to just to fit in (there are exceptions though, poor them). Harmful sub-conscious biases, assumptions and generalization is the bane of our existence.

It should but too often we fall into a habit of focusing on the negative like you just did. Try to focus on the more positive side of those quotes as both quotes say the same thing just one does it in a healthier way.

I kinda understand the point but also it doesnt make sense. Isnt it good to improve the areas where you are lacking? Maybe that's the gamble. You have to lose what you have now so you can have something else that you want more. For example lets say now you are working as an electrician and earn 2k$ a month but you really want more money and work on a computer like a programmer. You will lose the experience you built up and portofolio from working as an electrician but will work as a programmer and potentially earn more if you focus on it and work hard.

Essentially It’s hard but not impossible… in order to go towards our dreams we sacrifice somethings out of our lives in order to achieve and show the power and potential we are capable of when we set our minds and focus 🧘

I’m in the same boat, I hope it gets better for you man

Brooooooooooooooooooooooo I hope both of you are here, in one piece and hopefully you smiled about something. I received advice once “ just keep smiling “ Sounds like bullshit. But whenever Iv made decisions on whether I’m smiling or not my life gets better. Iv killed myself for my career and job the last 5 years. I’m 23. Iv really become someone in my field as well. My job and actual place of work I loved but this exact place just sucked the life out of me and made me nothing but sad. After 5 years I changed jobs same field but somewhere else. This new LOVES me. Everyone there is relatively happy and so different from my last place. Iv been smiling more often than not since I started. I felt so awful before I switched and stood up for myself. I go home happy like the place that would contain my nasty thoughts and let me spiral out of control… my home. Now is a place of energy and excitement. Like I want to do things and I’m thinking about my success and future. Life never stops offering opportunities like so randomly. My best piece of advice to myself and anyone who’s maybe suicidal. Is I promise tomorrow is a new day. Anything can happen. But killing yourself removes the chance of you playing the lottery and winning. It may have not been high before but it wasn’t zero. There will be winning lottery’s in your life but look for them. Your life directional thing is your happiness. Fuck everyone like everyone it’s you vs the world at the end of the day. Do what makes you happy. Also find a hobby. You’ll find friends through your hobby. If your friend sucks fuck em I swear to god just stop. Be friends with them when it’s convenient but find someone who will be friends with you when it’s inconvenient. They’re worth their weight in gold. Love you guys. Keep smiling

Same, im also 23 and i have nothing going on in my life, im in my jobless period after graduated, back home, no friends, and i literally see no future of me, just confused and lost.... lets just hope its get better with time

im in the same boat aswell, im 24, i have a finished apprenticeship, tried a bunch of different jobs, but non really tend to fit me, then i quit them don't work for several months, stay at home distract myself with social media and gaming, im telling myself im useless and can't get my shit together and find motivation to work or even live life. Suicidal thoughts occasionally. Yeah figuring shit out, what you want from your life is really hard. wish all you guys in the comments and myself that we can figure it out. gl hf

Just remember, even when u feel like there’s nothing to live for, and no one loves you, just know that Jesus loves you

I am almost 19 and figured I'd get a head start lol

Wow, I'm 18 and I'm scared that when I'm older my life will be completely turned around and my ideias personality and objectives are all different..... Any tips?

@@LuisC7 Why does that scare you?

@@3mi3mi it completely shatters what I plan on doing and my beliefs, that I now think are the correct ones

@@LuisC7 What are your beliefs? If that’s too personal, let me just say, if you can’t have your beliefs or plans for the future challenged, you’ll do yourself a disservice from exploring potential outcomes you weren’t even aware of. That’s how you get to know yourself. HealthyGamer is a great resource that’s helped me a lot over the past year in figuring myself out.

Same Talita... Especially on social media it seems like you could be super successful rn, you are just not trying hard enough... But you are doing enough, don't worry 💕

@@rigrace trust me, more often than not "successful" means bad with money lol. I invest and make like 5-10x what many of my friends make and save and re- invest it all and drive the same old beat up Mazda I got 8 years ago in 11th grade. Meanwhile my friends are all in new jeeps, BMW, pick ups etc, always going out for lunch (like every few days) and they are BROKE. and will be for much of their lives, I know because if I lived like they do I'd be broke too, even with a much higher income. It's all fun and games until you're still working at 80. Just remember Instagram is exactly what it looks like... a SNAPSHOT of life. Often exaggerated. If u spend your twenties trying to look the best on Instagram you're probably spending the money you could have used to invest to actually become wealthy later in life

When I was 23 I had the same. Now that I am 31 I see all these other clueless adults (at a high paying job environment) and i realized that all the other 23 year olds at the time were either way better at bluffing or just as insecure and thought that I was way smarter and better. On youtube and internet it seems like many people of your age are great and successful but honestly they just randomly (for the most part) happened to float to the top, below them there are hundreds that tried and failed just by bad luck. Your time will come that you will realize: everyone is clueless and just floating around.

Social media is the great deceiver. Nobody is as well off or put together as they appear.

Same :( happy to know I’m not alone

I had a difficult time when I was between 18 and 21 and I did not even realise it. I felt like you, felt so different from teenagers so it was hard for me to relate to them. They complained about me being arrogant when I was not, they were the insecure idiots. I became very arrogant recently because I was too insecure in the past. After all, dropping out from high school is not as bad as people think. Staying in high school is worse.

I turn 21 in 2 weeks and I would like to say.. I don’t recognize myself by how much I have changed. I got married at 19 and so I’ve had to grow a little extra fast feels like and I just feel like a completely different person than I was 2 years ago almost at 19… just wow.

I feel ya. I’m almost 21 and I’ve been struggling with drug abuse and lack of ambition. Also a lot of my friends have turned out to be pretty toxic. I feel more alone than ever before even though I have family and friends. Doesn’t help that I don’t have any goals for career or future while other ppl my age are getting married, kids and careers.

Wow so true!

Yeah, this guy is HELLA strong. I deeply respect anyone that can do this. I've heard that that shit is HARD to deal with.

as someone who turned 25 back in march, thank you so much for this. My friends & I are all in our 20’s (w one exception) & I’m one of the oldest out the group .. My friends still love to go out {ALMOST every weekend} & some of them are still heavily into drugs but as of lately, I’ve been finding myself out of tune w that kind of setting {at least excessively} .. I’m the oldest out of my siblings & I can just feel this natural gravitation pulling me into wanting to be better & do better for myself. & I don’t really know why that looks like 100% {i’m a perfectionist too} .. A lot of the things you said really made me feel more at ease & not so pressured & even encouraged to start some things!! your 4th & 6th point was specifically for me so thank you for sharing & happy 30th 🤍.

God bless you for this

I literally just learned how to unclog a sink/drain the past day ❤❤❤

For me it's music. Making music while sober you just get lost and it feels so great it's better than drugs it's pure good times

Well, everybody is different : alcool gave me inspiration, colors, lights, stories, musics, texts. Of course you have to make a sort between good and bad the next day and clarify the descriptions to have something good but but with money, time, and hard work I could earn an oscar with what I use to create while being drunk. :o) But for what I've finally understood being tired more than drunk is even more powerful. I create and work in a much better way when I'm a little sleepy and it's not cringe or with missing words and sentences, and with *a little bit* of alcool it's even better. Only the rythm of the text is a little bad and has to be reworked, all is a matter of moderation. ^^ Now I nearly never drink as I am tired of it, I've never felt addicted to alcool, and I never felt a lack of alcool. Everybody is different.

Yeah...

Nothing better than living life on life’s terms brother

@@bhaveshtochabbra6853 it’s cliche but talking to my close friends or any friends helped me immensely. Cause they always listened. Although they were never good at advice they were there and sometimes that’s all you need. Is support.

@@bhaveshtochabbra6853 I prefer talking to 2 of my cousin I’m closest to. I feel like they understand my situation better bc they’ve seen a little of it. I wish I could talk to my siblings more but I’m still a bit too nervous and don’t want to stress my family but I know it’d help a lot if I did.

@@Lala-lw8vx heh, same here. Even if I talk to my mom, I still feel like it's a burden for her to hear the same things over and over again, or I feel cringe for sharing them with her. But I learned over time that she, as my mother, is the best person that I can speak to, and is really happy that I can speak with her. Try talking to your family, they may want this as well but not know how to break the ice. They are the most valuable help and support, if they are open and willing to discuss with you. Don't worry that you'll burden them, you'll really help them and yourself if you are open. They will be happy to be there with and for you.

Hi. Im 24 as well. I share your lost feeling. I feel like a few unlucky events set me back. And now im struggling to chase my dreams i was so close to reaching. Thanks for making me feel less alone

Hope we are all pushing through this year even though I am pretty sure we are all tired 🥲

I was 23 when I took the biggest leap of my life and then another ~3 years to finally be at a place where I’ve found what I want to do. Even then (now), I’m still figuring things out and will always be. So keep going!

I'm turning 21 on the 30th aswell and i think 30th july if the best date for a birthday hahaha just saying. Good luck anyways man hope you find your way.

I'm turning 22 this 27th and i've been feeling the same as well for the past year or so since getting out of college and not really into my job, but watching GaryVee vids helped me in understanding that its a long game and we need to have patience and be consistent in our efforts. That's all that matters. remember its a long game, we have anywhere between a 40-50 year career ahead of us so put in efforts and dont expect anything nice to happen in the next 5-6 years. i think this perspective really helps a lot for me. i hope it helps you too.

I thot I was the only one going through all this until I saw ur comment🥺glad to know am not alone...just turned 20

That's exactly how I feel. Turning 23 in about a week. Feels like I was scammed for the first 18 years of my life, the past 4 has been coping with the whiplash, then this past year has been a massive amount of realization of what happened, and how I'm not the only one this happened to, and how I can actively choose to take steps to recover and create a genuinely fulfilling live. Videos like these are so great for providing a space for people like us to talk about this.

@@jakubmuron9030 There is an old saying “ Life doesn’t start until you’re 40.”

@@jakubmuron9030 Heyy another member of the 23 club here! Let's, just for a second, put aside the fact that you can absolutely accomplish the things you want to accomplish after 40. Over the past few years I've been feeling a lot of the same way as you, worried I'm not meeting my goals fast enough or hitting those classic mile markers in life at the right time. Something that's really helped me is putting in perspective what a ridiculous amount of time we still have left. Think about everything you've accomplished over the last 23 years. Every person you've met, every joke you've told, every happy memory you have, every thing you've learned. It's a lot! It's the entirety of time you've ever experienced! And you probably didn't even realize what was happening until you were like 5 or 6. Now realize that from now until the time you're worried about, you have the entirety of the life you've already lived. Every single memory you have, every single thing you've ever experienced, every single thing that makes you who you are. And you get to have that again, just in the time between now and the time you're worried about. Isn't that insane? You did so much in the first 23 years! And for more than half of it you didn't even have agency over how you got to live it. Now you have so many options! You have more control over your life than you ever have before! That's not even accounting for the fact that the vast majority of people continue to do things and accomplish their goals after 40. Because remember your entire life? You know, all of existence that you've ever experienced? You not only get to live your entire lived lifespan over again, you get to do it like 3 or 4 more times! You get to live the entirety of your life again in the best conditions your life has ever been another 4 times! That's such a crazy amount of time!! I by no means have lived a full life but the idea of doing the equivalency of everything I've ever done all over again feels monumental to me! And the fact I can learn from the mess that was my early years and improve on the time I got, it's such a good deal I feel like I'm being scammed. Don't get me wrong, you still gotta make good choices, live for the future you, put the work in to getting the life you want. And there will be plenty of hard times, moments when life doesn't go your way and kicks you while you're down. Not every year is created equal, but that's true for the years you've already lived as well. That's life in lifespan after all. But don't ever let yourself fall into the trap of thinking you're running out of time. Because holy shit, we have such an unfathomable amount of time left! It's all of our existence and more! And even though there are always more things to do, I think that's plenty of time to achieve the goals you want to achieve

@@jakubmuron9030 I get that too, sat here on a minimum wage job I like thinking “when do I jump to the big money where I can survive alone? Will I have to do a job I don’t want”

Currently same age and same situation and I hope things better

The fact that you had a relationship for that long shows that you have commitment, and that speaks volumes. I’m 20, and only been in a few relationships (none spanning longer than 2 months). When I think in my free time, I came up with this: Just work on yourself. Strive towards a primary goal, then everything else will fall in place. I’m a junior in college, and I’m counting on staying committed to my career path I see myself tolerating so that I can start being an adult. So my advice: Don’t turn to vices. You got this. It’s not meant to be easy, but greatness only comes when you’re really tested 👍

you’re going to bet through this bro. the same thing happened to me when I was 18 a few years ago and it was an incredibly defining moment. Time heals all wounds. You’ll be so grateful it happened the way it did. Let yourself grieve ❤

Thank you

Couldn't have said it better. I am turning 40 this month and it is just the last 2-3 years that I am finally happy with a great job, after many years of being patient at other jobs. I wish the same for you! (or even better, already being in this position a lot earlier than me!)

Yup

I have no dreams

The follow up question becomes "what is realistic?" to that sentiment. Most people don't have enough experience to determine what is a realistic goal for themselves. The best way to figure that out is to observe, experiment, consult, and persist. Observe real life examples, not the face masks people tend to put on social media. Experiment with your limits to help build a baseline of what you can achieve based on previous attempts. And consult with others in your life with more experience (but take it with a grain of salt, they might be suffering from set backs or face masking as well so use a wider pool of people to help with finding a median sample) and see how the advise might apply to your situation. But most importantly, persist... you're not likely going to get realistic goals lined up right away. You're likely going to under or over shoot things until you get enough experience to better assess things. There will be set backs you don't have enough experience to predict, so take the failures that come and use them to help reassess and set up the next set of goals.

tbh, girl's life is easiest at their 20s. Its only gonna get harder

I think you should also keep doing these things in your 30's. When you're 20 you think, 30 is old. Wenn you're 30 you'll realize, you're still young, but you might have a bit more money, a bit less anxiety and a bit more things figured out. I'm 31 now and I really appreciate this time in my life.

Thank you so much for this advice! Yes I've never understood that, most of your life comes after your 20s so why are they considered all you have? Life is not a race, and if we treat it like a race all it will do is make us unhappy

correct. why do we live to 80 or even 100 to spend only one decade of them as "young"?

Thank you so much for saying this! It really takes pressure off the feeling that you have to accomplish so many things while you’re in your 20s before you’re “too old”

Great comment. Thanks for the perspective. Also I loved your all star videos when I was younger!

Basically since high school I always felt that the world was going fast and I had to make all kinds of decisions that would affect the future of my life. I felt like that for years until I was working a job I knew how to do well but then I wanted more from it,more money but it didnt go that well and then the company closed and I had to find another job. I dont know if I have ever been so stressed out.. The expectations are big,the coworkers are somewhere in the mid - some are great,some arent so great,the pay is better but there is lots more to learn and do and the job security isnt that safe(got 3 months probation that runs out at the end of this month) So I am basically back at start but I am not feeling that same feeling that things are moving faster than I want them to. That said there is some regret for not pushing at college and doing an entirely different type of job. I have been working on machines for 4 years and now I am on another but bigger but I feel like I am more suited for jobs on a computer like programming or similar but I either dont have that spark or simply the will to go into it cuz no job is easy and also I feel like I am getting old or just my brain got used to the same shit that it's slow at learning new things. idk if I am pushing myself to learn something quicker than I can. On old machine I worked it was very simple and I was ready to work on my own after 1 month - I did screw up many times but with every mistake I learned and eventually became really good at it. At 2 years mark I was basically a professional/master - I knew how to do the job the best on that machine. Now I am working with other coworkers on machines that are idk 10x bigger,have lots of parts,lots of things to remember yet mistakes can easily cost thousands of dollars which I feel slows down my learning cuz I feel like I remember the most when I make a mistake and the correct it vs the coworker or boss getting mad at the mistake or them just explaning what not to do. Sometimes I feel like I am being corrected even when I do something my way that might be a bit slower than their way and I am not let to figure out a better way on my own yet I keep being said to think about what I am doing rather than asking what to do in every single situation. Being new sucks,I hate working in a team but I guess I'll have to figure it out and do it cuz I need money but hopefully I can in the future find a job that suits me more.

Preach baby, Preach!!

Didn't expect to see you here jon

We are in a same situation. I am 25 and this year graduated. haven't working yet. Everyday feeling anxiety. Need to pay rent . Everything seems expensive . Before at my studies year I used to work. But when I arrived to my country. (I don't like my country but bc of pandemic and money I can't leave now ) I am completely lost. Everyday I feel anxiety and depressed. It feels it doesn't stop. I also hope it gets better

Stay positive friend and never give up. Keep striving for success with all you have and things will get better

@@beckygray6361 Same here, I'm 23 years old and graduated from college. I did have two jobs that aren't related to my major at all before but both sucked greatly and I felt miserable doing them. Now I'm unemployed and lost as heck, I hate my country ( I live in third world poor country and my biggest dream and goal is to find a way to get out to live and work in another developed country ) but every country got serious standards for people they are willing to give immigration chances to and so I constantly feel unworthy of these opportunities. I'm always anxious, depressed, insecure and terrified that even if I do manage to get a chance to get out of here, I might end up realizing that I can't do well there or I might not be able to benefit these countries as much as other immigrants who are way more skilled. I'm trying to improve myself now and learn as much as I can from internet. I'm an adult but I don't feel like a true adult cause I'm always in this stunned state of mind meanwhile other adults already know how to deal with society and outside world. I studied economics but since here education is shit, I spent four years in college and graduated while still not understanding anything about my major or how I'm supposed to use it to earn money. I feel stupid all the time.

@@beckygray6361 You can workout a little bit, meditate, do the household chores and plant so.e vegetables.....this might help you to stay occupied, feel satistified and it might be of help to others, growing your own crops might on expenses as well and ofc stay positive....look at the brightest side of life even though in your darkest time

@@zhangqiling8086 yeah I also studied economics. And the thing we should understand, the knowledge we got from university doesn't work . It is only foundation. That's why I am reading books about economics to get something and also distract myself from all this shit .So and if we gonna work as an economics we should work for free to some months to get a job . Bc they always asks 2 -3 years experiences . I wish you to be successful from your career in the future in one of the developed County

It isn't too easy though - leaving toxic people /relationships... Since you almost don't realize /don't WANT to realize that they are... But then again, like he said : hard choices = easy life and the other way around... Right?

@@GirlFromTheEarlys no it’s not easy. Believe me I’m still struggling there’s no simple fix. I just keep making time for myself and listen to that very quiet intuition.

The thing that sucks is that when your in your 20's, you have to start caring about your health or you'll get fat.

That pressure (especially for young creatives like me) is SO relatable. "If I started KZfaq at 19, within 5 years with consistent work I had 1 000 000 subs." And then you compare with your reality and feel falling back, being filled with SO MUCH regret (for going to University for 4 years, all that effort, money, nerves feel spent in vain due to better alternative). Everything you do feels inferior or "why I did not do it faster?".

My school had a class on lessons from Dave Ramsey, if you want knowledge on money and how to use it definitely check him out.

Just turned 26 and have been feeling the same, this video and his video about success have helped soothe some of my anxiety. but my biggest advice (as i've finally done it myself) is don't be afraid or ashamed to get help, i've recently started therapy and medication and am already thanking myself for it. we are not martyrs, and we don't need to suffer unnecessarily. i wish you well!

@@dancingdyonysis thank you

28 right now and felt like I woke from a fever dream. You have time!!! We have time. IF you're not sure what you want to do, that's fine, but I strongly recommend you start saving if you have not already. It's so easy to save before marriage, or children or mortgage. Be kind to future you and start that 10-15% savings of your salary in a different account. The comfort that comes with that nest egg is just one thing to stress less about

@@Jasbones it is really hard, especially with so many barriers to actually getting help, from the complicated systems just to sign up to the cost itself to actually getting quality care from doctors. it really is all about baby steps. but that's amazing you've started down the path of healing as well.

eh i say dont get that tattoo lol

I got a tattoo at 25, and my only regret is that I got it in a place that I can't see without a mirror. It was a milestone year, and I was a bit homesick, so I got a little frog on the back of my neck. This little frog is only found in my home province in Canada. I got it on the back of my neck where it is easily hidden by my shirt collar and thick hair. 15 years later, it still means a lot to me.

@@sharonoddlyenough I got my first tattoo at 25 - and I am VERY glad I waited until then. it ended up being a flash piece from a shop we walked by while I was on vacation in canada and I had some extra cash and was dying to test my pain threshold (so I could get the big piece I REALLY wanted) - so I got a little birb on the top of my left foot. it was absolutely fine, it's still super cute today, and I actually got a little reverse birb skeleton of it done on my right foot 15+ years later. I think if 18-year-old me had gotten the tattoos she wanted then, I would be getting some removed/covered up. but 25 year old me was READY. ;)

@@sparklypoof oh, those tattoos sound awesome!

Thank you! I'm 18 and my hair is long and I have black nails and I'm a guy haha. happy that I'm being myself and fighting my fears

for men, that's pretty accurate

@@adirbarak5256 this legit applies to everyone? Where does the men part even come in?

@@Fahad0947 it's not black and white. But women in their 20's are in their prime (socially) and their 20's is mostly when they "have the time of their lives". Women who get to 30 unaccomplished, single, and childless often experience immense stress, as they should.

Hey darling, life is in the here and now. Life is not somewhere else, place or time. Don't spend your life chasing windmills. If I can tell you one thing I've learned, is that the happiest people on this planet are those who learn to appreciate the here and now, the small things, the places where life shows it's beauty, that most people completely miss because they are chasing distractions, illusions. Be kind as much as you can, it feeds your spirit, find a way to help other lives, practice mindfulness (I cannot emphasize this enough), start a practice of meditation (it's a process, don't get discouraged), take care and move your body, learn about wu wei and watch the beauty of life unravel. Never forget, we cannot even imagine the doors that will open along the way. As Rilke said, do not seek the answers that cannot be given to you in the present moment, because you wouldn't be able to live them. Instead live the questions now, and maybe some day in the future, without realising it, you will live along the answer. And the point is, to live trough everything. :)

Being successful don’t happen by magic Success is dependent on the action or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man who doesn't have an investment and I will tell you how soon he'll go broke Investment is building a safe haven for the future: with the right choice of investment that has at least 1% minimum risk and with an Expert guidance, profit and interest should be 💯 guaranteed.

@@alexmorris6222 I agree e with you 💯 .. I had a senior colleague at work who was doing well but never had an investment. Unfortunately he lost his job and went from living a comfortable life to hardship. There would had been something to fall back on if he had an investment

@@jeffreyneesmith4953 True, there is never any culture of wealth gathering or wealth creation to keep multiplying your finance that lack an investment value. This means, if you have to plan you must be an investor. that's why Investing in crypto stands to be the best

That happened to me too, I kept on waiting and waiting and now I'm 27 almost 28 and I never tried anything, only words and goals in my head..

@@rashazedd8330 oh gosh the amount of “planning” i have done in my head or on paper… i just need to do it.. something!

@@rashazedd8330 Me at 26 and I have the life experience of a child. Fear overtook my life and always felt inadequate for how little I have achieved and experienced. I've made a habit of doing nothing, and I need to start breaking that habit by doing ANYTHING, even if it seems small.

@@caitlynm924 yes you should do something! I had so many goals in mind but since I never tried.. nothing became real. For example I was wishing to be a flight attendant in Emirates or Qatar airways, 4 years has passed and now my cousin who had the same goal (unlike me she acted on it) and now she's flying to different countries around the world. So my advice is to give it a chance, you'll never know.. otherwise you'll face regrets.

Same 😶 I feel like I m not doing enough all my friends are going better and I am happy for them but I still feel bad for myself and the thing is Ik I am not doing enough. ...idk why

Same. Its a weird and different feeling of hopelessness

I'm 21 and I just feel I'm gonna fail on everything I try, I get so scared of failure that I can't keep on trying new things without quitting it, I feel scared for my future cause I don't feel capable of anything but that fear is the thing that's stopping me from actually succeeding so it's kind of a snowball rn

Hi I did videos like this view it answer see my POV

That sounds lovely

That is amazing!! I am 18 years old rn and just not doing completely great. I thought about your post and thought damn 15 year old me was amazing. I then imagined my 22 year old self telling me that he is me, and I can still be him

This hit hard, exactly what i feel

I love this

Hmm... Can you imagine what would actually looks like if several time and space versions of yourself literally meet one another whitauth anyone of them knowing who each of you are?

I just turned 21 bro trust we are gonna make it, we are in this together

I’m in the exact same boat:)

Same...:)

Me too man, me too.

You know what? Don't take life too serious, let it go, everything will turn out, I'm 30 now and still feel like I'm 23, and I look like it 😂 and you'll figure everything out. I promise. Don't loose yourself in relationships, go out be playful, take risks, get help if your fucked up. Be with yourself and just move. Do something, if it's right or wrong and you can't tell know just do it, because afterwards you'll know if it's right or wrong. My advices up there are so important because nowadays it's hard to feel yourself and find a gap where to fit in. But you got the chance to get to know you. And if your ever hitting a point where everything feels senseless, and like your stucked, you got two options, hoping that life is making something pushing you from your back and you'll fall really hard because it'll come without a warning, or second option you turn around, find your fears, except them and work with them, give yourself a new way. Shadow work. And he'll yes its gona be a bumpy ride, but how else should life shake you out of your mind and body state. Or shake yourself. Everyday, don't give up, you didn't made it to get a knew routine in your life because your only made it through 3 days? Simply go on. There's simply no use in self judge. Love to you all!

Thank you

i’m 20, 21 in january and i connect with 1. on a different level , i’m in a bad spot rn and it’s because i can’t show up. I over sleep everything , to the point now where i’ll do all nighters to avoid not oversleeping or missing out on something. once i’m where i have to be, i excel , but consistently arriving and being present baffles me. I genuinely don’t understand how people are able to wake up every, single, day at the same time. if i could just do that i’d be unstoppable but instead i go to sleep at 8 at night and wake up at 5 in the afternoon pissed my whole days trashed or i missed work or missed something else that’s important.

Thank you, that made me feel a lot better

@@ajrnb1233410 I'm 20 as well turning 21 in march, and I know far too well how you feel. Countless "sleep schedule reset" all-nighters that never worked, sleeping through literally 5 different alarms including my phone, a clock, and my alexa every morning, I've been there and still do struggle to get outta the damn bed sometimes. What caused this for me personally was just excessive screen time especially at night. Just ruins your mind's ability to tell when it should be tired or not, and when you finally fall asleep your brain takes advantage and sleeps for as long as possible to compensate. Try limiting your time online especially later in the day if you currently spend alot of time in front of a screen, or get some blue light glasses to make it easier on your eyes. I wish you the best of luck!
