For all my fellow 20 somethings, have you or are you dealing with a quarter life crisis?
I'm 23 and lately I've had so much anxiety about my future. I feel like life is moving along so fast around me and I'm stuck in a rut. All my friends are married, or have kids or are set in their career and I still haven't figured out where I even wanna be by 30.
Just got past mine about a year or so ago. It sounds simple and contrived, but I just stopped worrying about the kind of person that I wanted to be, and just started being that person. Wherever life takes me is where I'm supposed to go. Worrying and comparing yourself to others will get you absolutely nowhere. If you feel stuck in a rut, just have your goals in mind and work on them every single day. Doing so while making daily progress and living in the moment will help get rid of the anxiety that you might be experiencing right now. I wish you good fortune.

Thanks for this.
I try to keep this in mind all the time but there's moments where I just let my worries get to me.

Basically I'm like this too. And lately I figured out that all of this and most of my loneliness thoughts come when I am comparing myself to others. Just do your own thing and work hard for it and try to figure out what suits you because other people lifestyles might be different than what you want and even though you see those as achievements for them might not be what you actually want. You can't always stand away from your worries but you can confront them when they appear by focusing on something else, something important to you. 23 too and Gemini. ) xoxo Prince Lightning

It takes a lot of mental fortitude and discipline; it's not easy by any means. You'll have to work at it every day. I know that you'll get past it as I did. Just continue to focus on yourself and take it one day at a time.
