I'm 23 feel like my life is over. Any advice?
Have you ever felt that you're totally useless and everyday life is pointless, i feel like that occasionally. Like when i see girls i went to school with and they have amazing careers and lead really exciting lives i get frustrated with my own shortcomings and feel like giving up, i want to get my degree but i feel like in too old and the time for that was when i was 18 or 19. I just need advice.
Why do I feel like life is over at 25?
Perhaps this is because you have reached an age where there are people reaching adulthood at 18 who are significantly younger than you, this makes you feel old. However you need not feel this way. 25 is still very young, you have a long life ahead of you. I myself am 20 and sometimes feel like I have missed out on certain things, however I am still young. Just try to stay positive and make the most of your life.
I feel old and like my life is over, im 17..?
Here's a bit of tough love... Are you kidding?! My first response is, get over it and stop either being too hard on yourself or feeling pity for yourself. Perfectionism doesn't exist. So whatever your idea of success is should be examined greatly. And I say this with love. My point is what is it exactly that you have expected to accomplish by now that you already haven't? Your grades and work have faired better than most your age. And you have the rest of your youth ahead of you for relationships and the complexities of life! At 17 your supposed to make mistakes (trust me they're much more costly when you're an adult). This is the way life is designed. That's why wisdom comes with age not youth, at least it's supposed to lol;). I could see if you were turning 21 than maybe I could remotely identify with the "now I'm an adult thing". My suggestion is to make a list of what you feel your friends have accomplished that you haven't and I think you'll see the comparison. Then go and spend some time doing volunteer work at a shelter, a children's hospital or missionary (if you're spiritual this will help you to see some meaning in life). Look at some of the kids' attitude and desire for life and allow them to teach you how to appreciate what you have. One thing you must understand is that the teenage age years is about the preoccupation of self. In every teen's mind the entire world revolves around them. Seeing life from the another's perspective will allow you to move beyond yourself. Lastly, find someone you can share your thoughts with regularly to help you sort through your feelings. It can be a family, friend or therapist. And, keep a journal and read it. Good Luck :)!
