Perfect timing for my quarter life crisis

the best part of your 20s is that you get to choose what you do with the rest of your life. the worst part is that you have to choose what you do with the rest of your life.

I think the concept of growing up takes place over a lifetime but we exaggerate it in peoples early life. Thereās no rush. I think remembering that can be powerful

It feels like Iāve been in a crisis my whole life

As a (now) 31 one year old, looking back at my 20ās makes me laugh a little. I used to be fearful of turning 30 as if it was the ultimate cutoff time for my lifeās potential lol. I spent 10 years in this quarter life crisis mindset, and I was in the āfinding meaningā category. Being delusionally ambitious, developing my social status and reputation, avoiding any sense of negative emotion, learning new things constantly, unstable commitments, or commitments that didnāt work in my favor. I thought it would all add up to something grandiose by age 30ā¦ and welp, then I ended up spending the final 2 years of my 20ās in the pandemic. So much anxiety, for what? Everything I anticipated seemed to just disappear.
Fortunately though, it was a bit of a blessing. I finally forced myself to take the time to reflect on things that I was previously too anxious to face, and I feel more in touch with who I actually am now. Itās been several years of work and spiritual reorientation, but worth it. Oddly after I turned 30, a lot of my fears of what would happen also vanished immediately, and I realized that I could still choose to be whoever the fck I wanted to be, but now with some life experience and maturity.
Whoever is going through a crisis, just know that attachment is your one-way ticket to disappointment. Itās great to have dreams, but donāt become too obsessed with the outcome for them. There are just so many things you cannot control, and thatās totally fine. Thatās what makes your story worth telling. Be open and flexible. Most people donāt ever really grow up, we just get better at hiding from ourselves. As long as you work towards a life and inner you that youāre content with, then thatās all thatās gonna matter. If you cringe at your younger self, that means youāre growing :)

I'm finishing my last year of university this summer and it really hit me that I have no idea how to not be a student. That stability was always something I had and now I actually have to find my own way. Having 2 of those years in quarantine also feels like its stunted my entire development to my 20's lmao.

The thing thatās making me spiral is the fact that if you choose wrong the consequences are gigantic, especially financially

I was laying in the best last night and thought "am I having a quarter life crisis?" Guess I'm not the only one.

I've graduated high school 3 years ago and didnāt go to college. Ive been in a quarter life crisis everyday since then. Recently its gotten worse. I feel like i haven't amounted to anything even though i just started my adult life. The constant reminder that i should have everything figured out and have my career established has been weighing me down. That reminder is worse when i look at the Internet and see so many people my age or younger already successful at what i want to do. Im just gonna try to keep moving forward and take it one day at a time. Thanks for the video!

I'm 21 , will turn 22 very soon. I lost my mom when I was 16 , and hadn't seen her much from the age of 15 since she was going from hospital to hospital to try to cure her illness. I took a break after finishing high school at the age of 18 , I had planned for this break to be a one year break only , but after the first year I still had absolutely no idea what I wanted to do with my life.
My father kind of pressured me into doing something anyway (wich I don't blame him for at all , it's only natural that he wants me to go forward in life) and I had noticed that he was worried about me so I applied to the same college he had went to (that's where he met my mom actually) I thought it would make him proud , and it sure did. But I failed. Not that I didn't have good enough grades or anything , I just gave up after 3 months , because even though all my family was proud of me I couldn't help but feel like I was not at the right place. Feeling like i'm useless and wasting the precious time that is given to me here on earth , just walking down the wrong path in general. Now i've applied to another college and I still have no idea what I want to do in the future. Honestly I just feel like there's no place for me to be happy in this society. I've got friends , a great family that I love more than anything , but this world is just so strange to me. At this point i've just given up on finding a place that will feel right to me. I'm not saying the world is all bad , i'm not saying i'm all bad either , it's just a matter of compatibilty that I haven't been able to find at all so far. Sorry for this long ass essay no one asked for , just felt like sharing

I'm 33 now, but I went through the quarter life crisis at 25. It was the best thing that ever happened to me. But I made mistakes, ones that cost me. Things I know now but wish I knew back then. Here's what I've learned. When the meaning crisis strikes, it isn't a crisis at all, it's a message. A message to change tracks. To do what you know deep in your soul to be the thing you really want. Not what society is telling you to do. Not what your parents expect you to do. Not what your brain tells you is logical. Your brain is not your ally here. Listen to a much deeper murmur within you. There lies the real truth. Then when you know what that is, make a decision to embark on the path that will get you there. You might look at the mountain ahead of you and be overwhelmed. Voices in your head might tell you you're not made of the right stuff. Ignore them. This journey is made in baby steps, just one step after the next. Always focus only on the next step. I should know, I've walked it too. You might hit a wall early on. For me, it was running out of money. I was almost on the street because my creativity wasn't paying the rent. Fortunately I was able to get a job waiting tables to get myself back on my feet. But I had to really dig my heels in, and I wish I hadn't put myself in that situation. So when you begin to walk this path, I cannot stress enough to make sacrifices. Live well below your means for a while. Eat as cheaply as you can and rent in the cheapest place you possibly can. Make enough money in a shitty job so you have a nest egg. You need that nest egg. Then quit the job, and start working on your dream, being money savvy along the way. Avoid debt at all costs. If a cushy lifestyle is what you want, then go do what society tells you to do. Get that high paying job your parents are pressuring you to do. Settle for the first person you meet and live deeply unhappy and unfulfilled. You'll have a good lifestyle though. But if you are willing to sacrifice your lifestyle and materialism, so you can pursue a meaningful life, strive toward your dream, and grow exponentially as a person, you will reap rewards you didn't think possible. So, ask yourself this quarter-lifers, crisis or message?

Anytime I have a life crisis I just remember the advice from my grandfather:"As long as there are people to hang out with, beers to drink, and women to kiss, life is good". Couldn't be more right.

Iām 20 and have realized that being in school and achieving goals was what gave me a sense of purpose because of the external validation. Iām now recovering from burn out and anxious about what I want and how to be fulfilled. This video really sums up how it feels and assured me that Iām not alone. Thank you

I'm 26, turning 27 in few months. Time flies so fast that sometimes I actually have to think how old I am. It scares me how fast the time goes. I feel like 2013 is like a recent year and it's been 10 years. It's the worst thing for me. I know how quickly it flies and I feel kinda trapped because I know I will be 30, 40, 50 in a blink of an eye. I am so nostalgic towards everything and I know I will be even more nostalgic when I am older. I'd like to clear my mind of everything and just be a kid who doesn't know anything, and everything gives him joy and this feeling of freshness.
Now I feel like everything's so shitty. Like in that South Park episode where Stan felt like everything is a crap. I don't see point in anything. I force myself to do different stuff such as going to the gym. Luckily, I can experience joy out of such things. But many times I get back to the mindset where I am like "what's the point?". I always get back to that miserable point.
Such age is also this weird period where you are young but feeling old at once. You look around and see people of age 20 in the late highschool/early college days and just miss that. You feel like one of them but you are much older. Times when you were 20 are the times where you meet a lot of people of your age and everyone is in their life phase called "learn and have fun". They have a lot of days off, a lot of parties. When you get close to the 30 you don't meet so many people, they don't party like before, many of them have families. You kinda feel old. And you lack the free time. Lack of the loong break during the summer is just so shitty. You don't even have the time to build the memories.
And having kids? I always thought I want a kid. I still think I want. But I barely have the time or energy to enjoy my life. How could I take a responsibility of a new human? I still want to have fun, I still kinda feel like I am 20. I still want to do some things in my life. And there's so little time for everything that I can't imagine sacrificing it all just to extend my roots. What if my kid wouldn't even want to be here?

I turn 28 soon. I sold my business 2 years ago and semi retired. I feel like I was in adult mode at 18. Working 60 hour weeks with a bunch of 40-50 year old guys. I finally feel free.

Iām 23. Even though I know Iām doing really well for my age, I still often feel like a lazy bump on a log. And while I consider myself well-adjusted and in tune with reality and my emotions, I donāt practice mindfulness as much as I should. Iām gonna go sit in the forest for a little bit. Thanks Sisyphus

Been experiencing a quarter life crisis pretty much through the entirety of my 20s & now at 29 it feels like the window of opportunity is closing due to the societal expectations and physical degradation that comes with being older.
