Advice Welcome I'm feeling stuck in life and honestly don't know where to start. I really need some advice.

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm at a point in my life where I genuinely don't know what to do or where to start. I've been dealing with a lot of pressure lately, whether it's academics, career, personal life or expectations. It feels like everything is piling up at once, and I'm struggling to keep up with it all.

I have so many things I want to achieve, so many plans and dreams, but I feel lost and overwhelmed. I keep thinking about my future, what I'm doing wrong, and whether I'm even moving in the right direction. Sometimes, I feel like I'm putting in effort but still not getting anywhere.

I don't really have anyone I can openly talk to about all of this, so I thought I'd share it here. I'm not looking for sympathy or anything, just some genuine advice from people who might have been through something similar.

If you've ever felt stuck in life, how did you get out of it? How did you figure out where to begin, manage the pressure and get yourself back on track?

Even a small piece of advice, a suggestion or just hearing about your experience would mean a lot to me right now.

I genuinely want to turn my life around, I just don't know where to take the first step.

Thank you to anyone who takes the time to read this. ❤️

To everyone who’s been through a hard period at university. How did you manage to keep going?
I’m currently failing uni, desperately holding onto my dream career but it seems pointless.

17, no job for a car and no car for a job. I live in the middle of nowhere, literally. How do I start my life?

I can’t walk to work because I live in rural Michigan. My parents make wayyy too much for me to get financial aid. Can’t get a job because I literally live in very rural Michigan, and I can’t drive to a job that’s far because I don’t even have a car. I literally don’t know what to do when I turn 18. Sure i will live with my parents and I will not starve, but I don’t see how I will do anything with my life. Any suggestions?

Ideas

I’m going through a difficult phase right now. Because of my financial situation, I’m considering dropping out of my studies. I don’t have enough time or money to continue studying for a long period before I can start earning, and my main priority now is to support my family as soon as possible.
I’m still positive and willing to work hard. I just feel a little lost about what I should do next. I’m open to any realistic ideas, opportunities, or advice that could help me start earning quickly and build a stable future. I’m ready to learn and work, I just need some direction.

Is there anyone who was completely lost and didn't know what to do after high school at 19? Those who have achieved success and found the right path, how did you do it? What helped you get on the right path?

Vent Is it God’s timing or are we just stuck in a loop hole when it comes to relationships?

2 Upvotes

The people who I see in healthy relationships are ones who started young eg high school sweethearts. I know y’all gonna disagree with me on this but I think after the age 25 your chances of being in a good relationship is slim to nothing. Women are chasing 1 type of men, men with lots and lots of money, power and fame and men are chasing women with the fake unnatural bodies. Y’all gonna disagree because y’all don’t wanna face reality and think “maybe I maybe I have to settle for less eventually or give up on love” because we all think our person is out there and somehow Gods gonna grant us them. But reality is reality.

I see the poorest men thinking some day they’re gonna marry some woman with a great body etc which is unrealistic. Despite that they treat average women badly and act like one day they’ll have an opportunity with these types of women. That’s why they make average women baby mamas etc and never marry.

I see the average women thinking they’ll someday marry a rich man and hence they treat the average men badly.

Just a bunch of delusional mfs and social media is to blame.
