I exploded

I was so pissed at everything right now. I wanted to just express my feelings and to have my own space. However, my mom is giving me guilt feels that because of my action we will nof all go to the reunion. She is implying that because of me expressing my feelings, the family is not going and its because of me. I probably think this anxiety that i am having is because of her anxiety provoking remarks

How I feel

This needs to be read

Graham Moore in his acceptance speech at the Oscars for the screenplay of the Imitation Game When I was 16 years old, I tried to kill myself. Because I feltweird and I felt different and I felt like I did not belong. And now I’m standing here. And so I would like for this moment to be for that kid out there who feels like she’s weird or she’s different or she doesn’t fit in anywhere. Yes, you do! I promise, you do! Stay weird. Stay different, and then when it’s your turn and you are standing on this stage, please pass the same message along.

quarter-life crisis

I think it just comes with the follow up after “the best years of your life”.

You graduated. It’s bittersweet–you’re on a high because you’ve just achieved this great accomplishment…You don’t have a job yet, but you have a degree–you’re not sure about grad school…Everyone says take a year off–take a break–You take the “break” from higher education…

You start applying to jobs, none of them have anything to do with your field, your establishments–your local movie theatre, starbucks, a retail gig…None of which really pay that much over minimum wage… You go from a student to an employee…

You move back in with your parents, which is this weird setting because you went from having a place of your own to moving back into the same room you were in back in high-school…You feel out of place–That “oh no–what am I gonna do with the rest of my life feeling kicks in?!”. This sense of panic sets in where you feel like you don’t know what you’re doing… Loneliness and Depression can creep in… You feel mentally and emotionally exhausted, your parents want you to suck it up and stop complaining…You feel you have a degree that seems pretty useless… Student loans start kicking in, other bills start piling in…

You wish someone would’ve warned you about all of these adjustments while in school… You knew it was going to be an adjustment, but not like this… Some days you’re in this state where you’re wondering where the days feel like a blur and you’re wondering is this “I’m still figuring this out” period and when it will end…

You start to back track and think about the alternative routes you should’ve taken–so maybe you wouldn’t end up here… You worry no one understands…

But the relief is, you’re not alone, lots of other people including some of your friends and family are in the same boat… You don’t know how or when, some days are better than others… you’re struggling to figure this all out… You want to make your passion your career, you’re not sure how–but you hope this “stuck feeling” won’t last forever… and you know other people feel this too… And there is comfort in that.

It will get better… It will get better…
