      I think it's a decision to finally choose yourself-choosing to be the healthy, happy, and healed version of yourself. When you choose yourself, others will recognize it, and I hope it leads to many great opportunities in life. We all have a little child within us, and I'm letting her come out, shine, and be playful. To be my authentic self and not let fear take over, it has to start with small steps: self-care, little rewards, and building confidence by achieving small tasks daily. In this way, I will also learn how to raise a healthy kid of my own, as I’m a single mom.

    I’m 31 and consider myself a late bloomer. I’m only now starting my undergrad journey in nursing after wasting away my twenties getting high and barely getting by. I still live with my parents. But not all is wasted. My twenties is an example of how not to live life. And I had to pay the price in time, something I’ll never get back. Get your head out of the sand and pursue life with a purpose. If you don’t know your purpose, take the time to figure that out but stay productive during that time. Eat well, sleep well, exercise, pray, and work.

      Struggling with the so much. I’m 25, single, and seeing all my friends move away and get engaged or at least in serious relationships. I want a relationship so bad and have done so much work on myself, it’s frustrating seeing others with something I want so bad. I don’t like my job and it feels like life has just turned into the same thing over and over and I don’t find nearly the joy that I used to. Idk I feel so incredibly stuck but I know I’m not. I just have to decide to change and get better for myself. It starts with being comfortable on my own which is my biggest struggle, I fill all my time with friends or a distraction from being alone, even though I’ve lived alone for over a year now I’m still afraid to actually spend time alone and feel like I’m just wasting away my life and prime of my 20s. I just need renewed excitement and hope in my life.

      @@Lavinia-uz7ul I’m sorry to hear that. I get that it’s likely better to be alone than with the wrong person, however, I’m 25 and haven’t had a serious relationship longer than a few months while I watch everyone I know getting engaged and moving on. I know you can’t compare either, but I want a connection and deep relationship and it’s hard feeling like the days and weeks are passing by with nothing changing. I need to make a change but I don’t know what

      A partner will not save your life. Maybe in the beginning, but the void that you feel right now will appear again after the honeymoon phase.
      And you will put all your happiness in their hands and you will end up codependent.

    I turned 27 last week and it has been very hard to look back at my life not knowing where my twenties have gone. I feel like I haven’t achieved anything meaningful and I’ve been stuck at a 9-6 for the last 3 years and a half going into 4. I feel like my best years are gone and my time is ticking before I’m out of my twenties. I want nothing more than to leave my current job because I’m not passionate and I’m working for someone else’s dream and not my own, getting home when the sun is almost going down and watching my stay at home dad with dementia get older and not being able to spend more time with him. I have no direction about my future or what I want to build, what my gifts or talents are. I feel like the years are going by in a blink of an eye and I get overwhelmed at the thought of not having an answer, and not having a direction that gives me purpose and time freedom, while being challenged with getting out of the bad habits that keep me stuck further more.
