Im 25, everything he said is true. I quit my job because it wasnt what i wanted or enjoyed. Now stuck at home with a toxic family. I pray this year is the year things make a turn for me.
@Nasim_Eng and everyone else , my life changed drastically ever since this comment , I’m now a manager at my new workplace and in great physical and mental shape . All I can say is be patient and trust the process , never give up and believe in God.
Almost 24 here, broke, no job and having to live with my toxic family . I hope you guys can be aware enough because if uou end up like me it can be super hard to wake up in the day.
You're not alone, I'm 25 and just lost my job that made me totally anxious, and I broke up with my girlfriend after 6 years relationship... Back to family home and depression
@@Guiguisky12why did you break up with her if I can ask ?? I’m in a 8 year long on and off relationship with my boyfriend and I’m only 21 ? Sometimes I’m scared sometimes I’ve wasted to much time on him im not even really happy in my relationship I just feel like maybe it’s a trauma bond we’ve been through so much together and also separately in our own personal lives but we have bonded with each other about those hardships because we both witnessed them first person (hardships being we both have extremely toxic family dynamics) I just was wondering if you guys just grew apart or did something big happened resulting in you ending the relationship with her ? Sorry if that is to of a personal question to ask , I just feel like me and my boyfriend are growing apart more and more by the day and I think we are both unhappy with each other but we dont have anywhere else to go like back to our familys home and I don’t know if i should just let the whole relationship go or just continue sticking it out and maybe never actually being in a happy relationship I was basically just wondering if maybe you had ended your relationship with your ex girlfriend because you weren’t happy at where your relationship was after being in it for 6 years
I turned 31 yesterday. I've been working in a corporate job that drains me for the past 7 years. Currently in a call center which is like the worst I can ever image for a highly sensitive empath. I was aware that this isn't for me even before I accepted the job offer. There have been periods this last year where I was numb..just in the matrix. So tired from the daily pressure that I was under that I just kept drinking and watching TV in the evenings, and the cycle repeats over and over again. My mental health suffered, my body weight skyrocketed to where it's never been before. I was alive but didn't feel alive. Its taken me 7 months to find the rock bottom that now gives me the last call to change my life. Trust me if you are going through this right now..your intuition won't give up on telling you something needs to change. listen to it. You deserve a better life. And it is not too late to reclaim it.
I'm sat here at 3:30am recovering from the flu I've been suffering with for the past 3 weeks. This video hit so hard every point is how I've felt for the past 5 years at least. I work a job I said I never wanted to get into and I got talked out of things by my family. Now I'm nearly 28 feeling I need to take drastic action to get my life on track and start living for myself. This video will be my constant reminder to take action daily however small it is.
This is excellent advice for young people Alex. You're spot on. Most of the time we get stuck and feel stuck because there's no "motion" in the direction of our dreams. In my 70s I still continue to move against all odds in the direction of my dreams. And I will continue to do so until my last day. I talk about to young people in my RUclips channel about this very topic. If you ever want to collaborate I'd love to interview you as my guest. Keep up the awesome work.
I'm 27... I've done so many different jobs. Spent the past 3 years working commercial radio...it's draining me. It was never my passion, just something I good at and was a good 'compromising' career. My real passion is singing and music- my whole life dreamt of doing that, but I was always too scared to go for it. I feel like now I'm too old to make a complete switch, like I'm too old to make it now. It's really difficult. I see other people following their dreams and I never fully have.
you and me. I'm 27 and always wanted to direct or do something artistic. I've been learning and picking up the little things I've always wanted to do and process of elimination, kicking out the things that eventually I didn't like. Slowly I'm realizing my dream as a director. All the while people are calling me a headless chicken because I have suddenly started to explore all these things I should have done earlier in my life but I don't think they realize how almost you don't want to live not having the purpose in life you always wanted. Maybe they do but there is still that fire in you and that's why it hurts so much. Either you let it die or you do something with it.
Hi Lizzie, I'm 28, I took the step to become a musician at 26. Something I always dreamt of doing, I do not regret making that step. You can do it too. I'm just here because I feel like something is missing. Even when you think you've taken the right steps towards your passion you can feel out of place. Like I do now at 28. That's why I'm watching this video. Maybe there's something inside all of us that inherently feels like it's never good enough. However none of these are good enough reasons to stop yourself from chasing passions and dreams.
A family member recently committed suicide and this video described him to T. I’m hitting that same point in my life. It’s been on paper nothing but successful. Always have had a supportive family, am in a great relationship and am finishing up at arguably the best university in the world. However recently I have been doubting the path. Perhaps its because one always reflects when something is almost over. But I have certainly questioned whether or not my dreams are truly mine or if they are simply what other people have told me the “ideal” life is (family, good paying monotonous job that will forget I exist when I leave, stability).
This year, Doc , this year. Touching video, thank you for the constant reminder that everything is just waiting for me. Hugs from Brazil, hope your dreams come true.🌹
Very comforting Thank u ! Its the reality indeed, i am 25 and i have a lot of things that i wanna achieve but couldn't take action toward achieving them but after your advice i hope i can do smth to catch on these dreams 🙆♀️
Im 24 and achieved everything I thought I wanted, an awesome and caring partner, an large apartment with all the stuff I want but in some way I feel unfulfilled, im ahead of my friends and nobody is in this situation yet and its feeling lonely
Thank you sir iv been suffering from this a year now i feel like that im lost and seeing my friends developping themselves and having jobs makes it a lot more depressing for me, also the parents side its too stressing im always overthinking about my future and plans to do, but sadly the procrastination killing me from doing things im gonna try to follow your solution !
Recently I've heard the term Querterlife crisis. Even one and a half year ago, I was a dreamy girl, who used to plan what she will do after getting her dream job. Cut to 2024, she got her dream job but lost all enthusiasm. I don't know how to get out of this rut. I don't know what to do next. I can't dream anymore. That dreamy version of mine got replaced by a practical adult version.
I had just turned 17 last November in 2023. I was in the bath tub when I had a hard hitting feeling of anxiety and uncertainty. I can't even describe how it felt because it was just so powerful. I don't know if it was a quarter life crisis or not, but ever since then, I have been changed in some way. I want to do something with myself but I'm not sure what. I have interests, but what if I don't make it? I absolutely feel as if I am behind other students at my age. I fear that I cannot be a real citizen without a car, a house, and a job. I have Autism, a developmental disorder. My toxic aunt has always pressured me to become someone, and so has my entire family. I cannot let them down, but I may be going through social anxiety from school. I have been bullied in the past, and so many other things that I would deem traumatic. I cannot even recall one job that I wanted to do as a child. I cannot tell if this is my wake-up call, or something else. What I do know is that: I feel that I do not fit in with others who are having these types of crises, and that I may be in the wrong crowd or just confused. I just don't know what to do, and if anyone can help me out, I'd be extremely grateful.
This video is so relatable and helpful! 👍🏼 Going through a quarter-life crisis can be tough, but it's important to remember that you're not alone. This video is a great reminder of that. Thanks for sharing! 😊
I'm having this crisis. I've been wanting to live in an island, but my work is here in the city. If only I can quit everything and just move in a tropical island. But I have kids that I need to prepare for their future.
I’m about to turn 30 this June. I’m living my dream life in Florida. I love it here but I hate the people. I am single but can’t a great woman here. I just got what I thought was my dream job, a tech career at a great company. But it’s been only a month and I already hate it. I don’t know what to do next… 🤯
Thank you. So basically right now you should be doing whatever your high school self dreamed of doing? If I wanted to be an actor and Olympic weightlifter I should be doing acting roles and competing in Olympic style weightlifting?
I feel shitty because I feel like the one person I am kinda ahead of is a friend who went through quite a harrowing medical trial he is still dealing with the effects of today. I am insecure in academia because I really flubbed through college and have yet to do my bachelor's paper. My dream is to move to australia to become a park ranger. For that I need money. For money I need work. Which I am looking for. But the bankroll is a job in my field. For that I need the diploma I don't have. The diploma I dread getting to work on. Fucking hell.
Im 25, everything he said is true. I quit my job because it wasnt what i wanted or enjoyed. Now stuck at home with a toxic family. I pray this year is the year things make a turn for me.
It can and will be a turning point for you, if you so choose.
same struggle bro.. we're gonna reach our dream or what we want this year..
@Nasim_Eng and everyone else , my life changed drastically ever since this comment , I’m now a manager at my new workplace and in great physical and mental shape . All I can say is be patient and trust the process , never give up and believe in God.
Thank you, just turned 25 today. I think this is something everyone needs to hear at some point in their life to know they are not alone.
Almost 24 here, broke, no job and having to live with my toxic family .
I hope you guys can be aware enough because if uou end up like me it can be super hard to wake up in the day.
@okay thank you, U too. Wish you a great new year ahead!

3.19 am over here 👋 can absolutely relate...
Not just quarter, but midlife crisis as well. I hated your video at the beginning, and I love it at the end. Thank you!

This was the wake up call I was subconsciously looking for. Thank you for this 🙏
I am 31. My 19s-23s was being in an destructive relationship. 23-now been trying to heal from it. I havent enjoyed a bit between my 19-30………..

Just have kids, they will be your meaning. Im so envious of your position, please dont take it for granted.

It's the end for me. 31 and I don't have an excuse. My life had been too good for me to do nothing. I have squandered it.
Currently in my second year of Biomed undergraduate and I’m failing. I’m overwhelmed and it is depressing and eating me up and I need to sort it out
yo ive never commented but i been seeing your vids since 2015 you the goat

Wow! Thank you for this amazing video. Your words hit me like a bullet, but a good one actually when I think about it.
I'm not lost I already know what I want to do with my life it's just not going the way I planned.
I’m about to turn 30 this June. I’m living my dream life in Florida. I love it here but I hate the people. I am single but can’t a great woman here.

Why do you hate your job?
Great Vid! I am building it.
I’m 17 going through this I feel like I need help.
I need this. thank you

"blasting drake, whipping back home" jeez, this video was made for me right now...
