This. Don't let social media FB, IG, twitter fool you. Remember, your peers and other ppl you see on social media post and say what they want you to see and hear. No one is exempt from problems and struggle so no need to be naive in that regard and no need to let that get you down. Most of the time it's for their own validation. Bro, you seem like you have a good head on your shoulders so Keep it up!!! Millennials tend to be more impatient and expect more for less and part of that has to do with things like, technology and social media and the desires, due to society, to ascertain materialistic things thinking that will make us happy. I know it's hard, believe me i do. I come from a single parent household of 3 siblings all different fathers, grew up poor, mom on welfare, food stamps etc. I've been to 13 different schools as a result, got laughed at for not having nice clothes and shoes throughout. i moved out when I was 17 and told myself that if I'd ever have kids and a family, that I'm going to do WHATEVER it took to give them the life I never had and I'm going to take care of my mom as well and she'll never have to worry about sh**. Now, I'm 30 yrs old, married, have a 5yr old son and a daughter on the way in June. I have a great government job that pays well, my wife works and makes great money as well we own 2 cars, and we're in talks with realtors about 2 properties, one we'll live in and one we'll rent out. Now if I left out all the struggles the ish sounds like the ideal life, but if you know the full story there's more of an appreciation for the grind. I say that to say this, in getting where I have, it took work and a lot of it. More no's than yes', more failures than successions. No matter what you have to ALWAYS have to believe that there's greener pastures ahead but even more so that belief has to be reciprocated with a parallel work ethic. You got a degree bro!!! that's more than few hundred million people can say. You can go places. The NTers believe in you!! It's natural to fell this way hell we all do but you can't wallow in it too long or it'll break you down. Hope this motivates you....Peace!!I hope you're not basing this off of what you see on social media.

kinda glad i found this thread cause ive been feeling the same way, although havent gone through as much as you
i jst turned 25 and graduated with a BAS back in december. i still live at home, i work as a bartender, no gf, rarely go out, and have been watching, literally, all my closet friends start families, buy houses, and all that. for very brief moments, it does get to me that I need to, and should, be doing more with my life. sometimes i feel like everyone is moving on without me and that feeling of not doing enough suuucckkss
BUT... as soon as i stop feeling sorry for myself, I realize that i am ALOT better off than most of my friends and people i work with. A majority of people i know are having unplanned kids, are in relationships that they constantly question, dont have degrees or even bothered with college, are letting themselves go (physically and mentally), and work jobs that they constantly complain about. At the end of the day, im only 3 months out of college, the job I do have paid for every cent of college, im financially stable, and i have the time and resources to travel, start new hobbies, and do basically everything that i wanna do
moral of the story: dont ever settle and keep pushing on
rant over
needed this right now. thanks and reppedThis. Don't let social media FB, IG, twitter fool you.

the last part SOMLI'm sitting here sipping this Henny to drown my sorrows and felt like I needed to get this off my chest. I've never told anyone this, not even my closest homies.
- After suffering through unemployment for most of 2014, I found a job to get me back on my feet. It's a job, one that is rather dull, but pays decently.
- Although I just turned 23, mindlessly clicking away and repeating the same tasks everyday has really negatively impacted other areas of my life.
- I've grown restless even after trying new yambs and hobbies to get my mind away.
- While I'm grateful to just be employed, I've realized the hard way that a job =/= career. NT gave me flak for having $50k saved up, but I've learned that money only goes so far.
What's the point I'm trying to make? I guess it'd be to never get stuck/complacent.
Same situation too just turned 23 Tuesday I'm guilty of complacency for a majority of my adult life so far. Flunked out my first year of college in 2011-2012 because of poor grades & distractions & lost a job. Past 3 years been floating odd jobs to stay afloat. I currently work two jobs both very strenuous with ehhh so so pay. Every day I tell myself for how long will I keep doing this it's more out there for me for real. So planning to enlist in the Navy in December and see what doors will open for me then. One thing I've learned in this life always keep busy because once you have slow moments that your not doing anything that complacency sets in deep and you don't desire change at all....STAY OPTIMISTIC BRO GOD forever makes a way for us...blessingsI'm sitting here sipping this Henny to drown my sorrows and felt like I needed to get this off my chest.
