Anyone else think that they're not going to make it? Like you're just not cut out to be an adult or something?

 No.258

yeah but I'm a pretty awful person so I don't know what I expected.

 No.259

>>257
Just get your shit together and take responsible for yourself. Boom you are adult.
You can still watch ponies, cartoons and do child stuff. Being adult doesn't really mean to really change anything. It just mean to take responsible for yourself

 No.262

I'm pretty sure nearly all adults think and feel this way, at least for some part of their life. I was talking to a coworker just yesterday who said nearly the exact same thing. And I told her the same thing this anon said >>259
There is no magic sauce to being adult. You just do what you need to do and get through your day, no matter how much you struggle to do it. That's really it.

 No.263

There are days where I question why I called the ambulance when I ODed and think that I'm just waiting for my kidneys to final just give up the ghost, but I at least have to see if there is something.
Anything that makes my choice to live right.

 No.272

Being an adult is easy, doing a good job on it is hard.

 No.276

I have this thought in the back of my head that I was never meant to make it to adulthood and that I would be the one to eventually end my own life.

But, since I never did that, I'm now at adulthood realizing I never planned to learn how to live life.

 No.285

I feel that I deserve no better than the situation that I'm currently in, since I am the one who passed by the countless opportunities leading to other ends along the way.

Yeah, sometimes. Other times I feel like a man with a plan.

>>262
Not everyone starts at the same level

Just telling people to get their shit together is often not helpful. They already feel pressured to perform. They don't necessearily need more of that.

 No.290

I truly, desperately want to be independent.

Yet at the same time, I feel crushed by all the responsibilities that have been laid on me by my family.

My body just cannot keep up, and sometimes it feels like I'm the one who needs to be taken care of because I can't do things myself.

I want to move out and live my own life, but both my health and society are preventing me from doing so. And I fear that by the time I can finally move on from all of this, it will already be too late for me to really start living.

And so I just drown myself in a sea of distractions every day. Because if I don't, I fear I'll just lose the will to even bother going on anymore.

>My body just cannot keep up, and sometimes it feels like I'm the one who needs to be taken care of because I can't do things myself.

Boy, I feel ya there.  I swear not an hour goes by without someone asking if I'm okay.  And I'm not okay, so maybe they should be asking that, but it's not a good feeling.

I had a plan, but it didn't work out so I've just been kinda drifting and sputtering ever since. Could be way worse but still doesn't feel great.

 No.299

>>287
I think it's crude, but not untrue. Getting your shit together doesn't mean you don't struggle or don't need help or never cry or that you get it right the first time. It just means that you do what you need to do to survive. Sometimes surviving isn't pretty or glamorous. It can be messy. And that's okay.

 No.323

>>292
They don't tell ya that plans rarely ever go as, well, planned.

But, most humans, even if it takes time, are plucky enough to get back up and try something new. Takes some moments, and others years, but, we get there eventually so long as we aren't stopped by something.

 No.340

>>339
I liked the fake tracer. He had pizazz.

Bring back the real fake tracer

 No.341

I arguably have my life together pretty well. But having got here I've noticed no one really gives a shit. I've always had to rely on myself I guess and experience suggests I always will.

Not trying to make a point really. Just felt like pointing out that having your finances and what not together isn't everything.

i have always felt this way, for as long as i can remember. i try to fight that feeling and push forward, but even on the best of days, it is like dragging and anchor around.

 No.345

I think, one day, it would be really neat to be self sufficient and own a house without having to work overtime or absurd hours. Maybe even buy nice things now and again, as long as I don't overdo it.

 No.350

>>342
I kinda feel the same, except my anchor screams at me constantly lol

>>345
That's all I want too, but it feels so out of reach

 No.351

>>350
Same here. I'm fiscally solvent if I keep from reckless purchases. But with my good job and everything I have to wonder how everybody affords some of the conveniences they indulge in.

Debt, probably.

 No.352

Yeah, almost every day. Shit sucks.

 No.353

>>276
I rather just feel I was ill prepared because I wasn't pushed nor let roam free enough. That's why if I'll ever have children I will try hard to make them take responsibility and get used in baby steps.
>>285
There are no sunk costs in life. So what if you didn't take chances, don't let spilled milk get in the way of chances to come.
