You reply in the comments, and i try to guess your age based on a short conversation we have. That's it!
You're viewing a single thread.
Come at me bro
Okay bro, what do you feel like you're missing out on?
Life in general tbh
Can you go into more detail about that? Maybe you spend so much of your time indoors and online, and wish to be outside and hanging out with friends. Maybe you're looking for a relationship. Or maybe it's a combination of both and/or more things. Tell me more
Mm I spend almost all my time outdoors and I go out to socialize at least 3x a week. But a friend of mine died recently. Everything feels hollow and meaningless. I guess I don't feel like my life has a purpose -- a fairly common and first-world problem to have, but a problem nevertheless.
Sorry to hear about your friend's passing. It's completely normal to feel hollow after the passing of someone important to. Don't feel a need to diminish your problems because they are first world. A problem is a problem. How have you been coping with this?
Been writing about it and sharing memories with people who knew my friend. It will take time.
I want to touch as many people's lives as they did. As I am right now/the way my life is now, that is not on track to happen. Need to change things.
You will move past this; I guarantee it.
Do you feel like the career path you chose is not in line with your goal of touching people's lives? Or you've simply lost your sense of direction as a result of your friend's passing?
The kicker here is that I do have a meaningful life-touching career ... ha ha ha. Just doesn't feel like it, some days.
Thanks for talking about this with me, I know it's a heavy topic for a first conversation.
It's very normal to have these bouts of doubts about one's purpose as it seems you're struggling with. I believe the term for it is existential crisis, so totally normal and not something you should be bothered about.
It's no problem as well the heaviness of the conversation. I think someone taking psychology should be comfortable discussing heavy topics haha. Also, that's the point of this post, to have a conversation, so feel free to share anything you want.
I'm gonna go ahead and make a guess, because i feel pretty confident as to how old you are. I think you're somewhere in your 20s. Maybe mid to late 20s. So I'll guess 26 years old. However, if you still want to talk, we can do that
