i’m taking a break from uni because i became depressed as fuk and i’m sitting home not exercising or finding a part time job or anything. i’m going back this fall but this chapter fucked me up like damn i got a little sister too she has a 4.8 gpa with community service hours and extracurriculars looking to go straight to harvard or ucla then going to med school or some shit. if i dont pick it up from here i’m gonna have to live in her house or be homeless in what might be less than a decade. that being said i’m also scared i’m gonna fuck everything up and feel worthless again when i go back to school. grades suck and i can’t make friends for shit feelsbadman.
there is so much bullshit, catastrophe and horror in the world that just staying alive and being with people is a damn good accomplishment. all standards of success like having a decade-long education, a house or multiple cars or promotions or whatever are created by an economic system that explicitly makes them impossible for the majority of the population. careers don't really exist for people under 30 and the way things are going it's unlikely they will be able to retire.
so living with your sister while you, idk, build up some strength, work on some practical skills or get any kind of job that isn't entirely soul-destroying is as good a plan as any. you don't need to justify your existence.
