Quarter-Life Crisis.

Hi. I am 23 years old and have no fcuking clue what I want to do when I "grow up." I am adult right now am I? How do I define, how do you define adult? I used to define adult similarly how I defined being successful. It was about being financially independent. But I am finding that success if finding what your purpose is in life, fufilling that purpose, and knowing that you have a reason for being in this damn world that we're esxisting in.

When I spoke to a therapist yesterday, she said she feels I may fear letting go of my parents, and I need to think to myself what if they were not here, what would I be doing? I have reached their definition of success but what about mine? Why have I allowed myself to be defined by my parents? Because that is what you are "supposed" to do. WRONG. Maybe I did it because I had no fear of failing and knew I would not fail.

Here's what I need:

  1. To know my work is meaningful
  2. Be challenged to the point of not knowing how I made it thru but I did and I did it well
  3. Working with people face-to-face
  4. Constantly on the move
  5. Constant change
And then maybe, just maybe I'll fel something. As of now, I am empty, envious and plain bored as fcuk.
