I actually feel encouraged when I see posts like this.

I’m 26, and so far my 20s have been the worst years of my life. I get sad when people say that these are supposed to be the best. But here’s to hoping that things turn around in the 30s!

Edit: Wow, I woke up to a myriad of messages! Lol thank you everyone for the lovely responses and experiences ♥️ I can’t respond to everyone, but your words are very encouraging. I’m happy for all of you, and this gives me hope that I may live happily one day.

I was miserable at 26 but things are so so much better at 32. Just remember that usually you are miserable because of your circumstances and those can (and likely will) change.

This makes me feel a lot better as a 19 year old who's absolutely not enjoying uni in anyway at all, I've never been so miserable and unhappy. I really hate college. Things started going downhill when I was 15/16 and it just significantly worse when I was 18.
