>hrt at 21>no college>broke as fuck now at 23 and a halfit doesnt get better
>>42771755Me too I'm gonna turn 27 this year. So over.
>>42771755this is the path im on, unfortunately.i started at 20, a tiny bit before my 21st birthdaynow im 22 with nothing to show for it
chopped and unc from physical trauma to mouthbreathing even though I’m a feminine faggot it got screwed up and I cant even act like a faggot because I’m not beautiful
>>42771755Your 20s are still your youth. Imagine how long your life has felt up to now - average life expectancy in first world is more than triple that. You are still so fucking young and this kind of "my youth is over..." thinking at 23 is actively retarded and holding you back more than you can understand. I'm 29 and I routinely get 40+ year olds talk to me about how young I am and how much more there is to life.
>>42772656im a failure im not employed living off ga and snap
Yall guys are goofy I'm 32, turning 33 in 2 months and I've got people hitting on me, gotten a promotion, etcAs for looking youthful, exercise and a healthy diet definitely do their part (as does sunscreen) Don't be too hard on yourself nona, life has many possibilities.
>>42772688go be a prostitute
>>42772688I failed out of University, I've been fully unemployed for 3 years until recently, and on and off employed for 4 years before that, now I'm back studying at trade school and working part time. It's only over when it's over, until then you can always pick it up. It's hard, brutal even, but it can be done.
>>42772737i wish i went to college and i wish i could go to college right now beginning college at 24 sounds so over
>>42772753>Beginning>OverYou see the contradiction, right? You're psyopping yourself
>>42772753I went to college when I was 25It's not over for anyone
>>42772781i want to kill myself
>>42771755it'll be fine for you because it's going to be fine for me too, i started hrt at 2, have no family bcs most my relatives are old/dead and my dad is a meth addict and my mom married another man who creeped on and abused me and she won't even talk to me anymore, and i'm about to get a van and live in it and i'm gonna do work programs and everything is gonna b chill.
>>42773057Your life is worth living! Do not give up, please.
>>42771755just think of urself as a time traveler going back into the pastin the future things didn't get better all the way up to lets say 35, now u have a chance to at least do something different and not end up like thatjust make plans so u don't stagnate for the next 10+ years tbqh
>>42773547i cant even get employed right now and even if i could itd sound miserable
>>42771755>Only 23You're still in your youth stupid nigga
>>42773674yeh but really think about being like 35 and how much more miserable u will be, then u have 12 years to change that, more than half ur entire life currentlydo everything possible to make sure that u don't end up in that bad end future more so than worry about problems of today tbqh
>>42773703barely, 5.5/7 years gone
>>42773726retarded, "youth" is easily your entire 20s. even if you did waste your youth, is wasting the rest of your life the solution? jesus fucking christ, depression really is a choice for some of you chimps
>>42773840no, it's up to 25, after that u no longer qualify for youth stuff, saying it's the entire 20s is just cope like 'xx years young' ppl tbqhif u just mean feeling young and healthy, then ppl age differently so ymmv
>>42771755im 29, no college, barely 2 years hrt. its over
>>42773712this isnt helpful, i thought this exact thing at 21, i still wasted the next 10 years bedrotting
>>42773924yeh so u didn't really internalize it and make the necessary changes then, did u???like if u keep going in 10 years u will be 41 and still bedrotting w/ nothing to show ig???it's entirely preventable, u can still prevent an even worse future iunno
>>42773968you cant internalize it because the thought of it makes you feel pain which makes you try to ignore it further.putting in effort is painful, its like i have to do all of this and all of it feels horrible just so that my life is better years from now?the only way to get ahead is when you are already in a good mental state and that calmness allows you to act.i also dont even know what to do, i dont know what im supposed to do
>>42773862who gives a shitthe point to life is to live it, not endlessly speculate about the discrete cut off points for arbitrary shit like "youth"there are "self help youtubers" who are 18 and they're talking about how their best years (12-18) are over and how they now have to grow up and be full grown adults and the comments are full of goofy 15 year olds doomerposting about their wasted youth. everyone thinks they wasted time, but the only thing that matters is whether or not you choose to stop wasting it there definitely is SOME point where you stop being a "young adult" and start being just "an adult" but who gives a shit. you just gotta go out and do it>>42773968but you're not wrong here, based nona for this one
>>42773982yeh, basically if u see urself as the u years from now, and disassociate from the present self enough that u do what needs to be done to save urself like if ur really entangled w/ ur current situation so much that u can't get a moment to stop and think, then even then, it's simply true that consequences aside, u could just go somewhere unfamiliar and quiet and have a long think w/o distractions, and then come up w/ some ideasthe impulse to remain stagnant is not impossible to overcome, but it will probably always be uncomfortablemany 'resent' and 'rehab' style therapies also remove some of that agency from the person for that very reason, but it's not impossible to do it urself, just harderlike thinking of ways to trick urself and put urself into situations that will be more calm and give u a moment to make plans and so on
>>42774009yeh I mean I don't disagree w/ the basic message, but also extend it that 'youth' is basically just an illusion that u get from society to make u feel a certain way... but it u accept that there is such a thing then that is by definition up to 25, u no longer qualify for youth facilities and groups and so onat no point is it over, there are no credits rolling, it just keeps going, but there is obviously a difference w/ the results of paths taken and not taken tbqh
>>42774074yeah truei never accessed any youth services or spent time in "youth spaces" and shit like that so i guess i just forgot that there is kind of actually a working "structural" definition of youth.
>>42774247well yeh I mean it's all about opportunities, like hs boymoders could have been girls in hs but fumble, and later ppl fumble youth opportunitieslike even if u just have the desire to learn a foreign language and are under 25, there are organizations that will pay to fly u out for summer schools to study their languageif ur creative or want to start a business there are specific prizes and funds u can get but usually like only under 25 or 30 as an adult u have to do it all urself
>>42771755I'm starting at 18 and I already feel like it's over and that I should probably just jump off a bridge for not starting at like, 15.
>>42774339 have the desire to learn a foreign language and are under 25, there are organizations that will pay to fly u out for summer schools to study their languagethis one i became aware of a few years ago when i turned 26, and it was around the time i started learning a foreign language independently (few native speakers in my country, and the language's official international language course is a bit out of my price range) and i reeee'd so hard for about a month about it. currently saving for the language school, with hopes to get a year long working holiday visa before the cutoff age (31) unrelated to current thread, but you mentioning that specifically lit up that anecdote in my head
>>42774377yeh, I mean u have to be aware of those things and often even proactively looking or the opportunities will pass u by tbqh
