I'm 18, I work 40 hours a week for a study I don't even like. I don't party or even have time to meet up with friends. I rejected all social media. My two days off I spent being tired in bed
Maybe I'm dramatic but it's kind of taking a toll on me and I feel like I'm not enjoying life as I should, until I get older and older and then it'll be too late

Do you feel the same?

Play this for the full experience.

I am.

Yes, low key.

A bit but that's mostly because as a child I imagined teenagehood like American high school movies

thanks for that bop op!
and yes i kinda feel the same, i also imaged teenagehood like in american movies ;(

Lol no, I work hard now so that I don't have to later.

When I was 18 I felt the same way.

When I was 25 I felt the same way.

Even though I don't practice this, if you want change, you gotta do it yourself. Take some vacation time or ask for some time off and go out and do what you want to do be doing.

I used to be just like you before I moved out of my aunt's. I also used to think that my teenage years were wasted but now I have my own world and freedom and I'm turning just 20 this year so don't worry, we're still young and we still have a lot of time to have fun and more than that.

But study is priority, I'm taking first year Accounting at college and I'm still unware of this program since I don't like it either. As far I have known, some people pay money to do post-secondary, some may even finish the program that they chose but they couldn't find a job or barely got to know anything about what they study after all (some lucky case that they get a job thru relationships and stuff).

Just keep doing what you're doing, as long as you're not giving up with these unused potential chances left to make it better, you'll be fine. Goodluck!

Preach it!

Yes, I have no social life at all and it feels like i have created problems for myself that could have been avoided and I don't know how to fix them.

Thanks sis. I admire your positivity. Hopefully I'll end up in your position in a year or two. It's not that I hate working or studying or any of that, of course I want to ensure myself a decent future. It's just that I feel like I'm living a life that is not meant for me if that makes sense

THIS! The worst part of it all is the feeling that I chose for it.

Not really tbh I'm 26 and I feel very alive and stuff
