is it me or after u turn 25 life gets real, I feel like Im losing my mind

[Suicide King]

You too young to feel that way boo...

Actually, she is at the right age to feel that way. This thread is about hopelessness. Almost everyone shared their story of being hopeless.

But I would take the bullet out the chamber, before Elle Driver pulled the trigger. Puhlese Beleevit.

Breh, it kinda hit me when I was talking to my girl a few weeks and she told me she viewed me as rich. I was confused as hell cause I don't view myself that way, then sat back and thought about it like

And the crazy part is every time I hit a new plateau I feel broker than I did when I made less. No lie breh, I'm making 200k a year right now and I look at myself in the mirror sometimes and think "nikka you ain't shyt cause you're not a millionaire yet." So I stay up until 3am hustling and grinding trying to find a way to make more money, but I always end up feeling like I'm farther away from making it the closer I get

I told myself I wanna hit 30k/mo by next year and I can already feel myself being miserable because it's not 100k/mo. Or a million a month. Or a hundred million a month.

I honestly feel like I might be insane some times

You're in the 1% if no

 

[LostOne]

Damn I was just thinking about that today, I often use to wonder why some secretaries, cashiers and especially bus drivers were so pissed all the time. Now I understand its the feeling of being trapped and no hope for the future in sight. It's the feeling that they gave up on their dreams or were not able to chase them in the first place.

you wanna die before you reach your 30s?

On the real I kinda know how she felt because I never thought I'd make it past 25.

 

[Blackout]

It's worse once you reach 30, that's why deep down I wanna die before I reach it.

Well if you gonna die might as well give me your nudes miss.

Ill make sure you go out with a "bang"

You're in the 1% if no

No but I'm not. 10% yeah, but def not 1. I think 1 start at 350k or something like that.

 

[Rockstar Mom]

Gon pack my bags and go to Jamaica, on some How Stella Got Her Groove back tip

This is that carpe diem, existential outlook I love so much.

 

[Mofongo]

I felt that hopelessness twice in my life. Months back in february i left everything i had and moved to a diff state. I hit rock bottom and didnt give a fukk about whatll be my next move i just needed to do something. Feeling that hopelessness at a young age made me realize its nobody elses fault but mines that im in this position of aintshytnikka.

Now im on a different career path thatll make me live comfortable, not making stacks and ball out, but if my kids need something im there with no excuse.

Yes money is an issue, but this hopelessness came from something deeper than that. My need to strive and work hard making my own way, knowing that i can achieve anything and getting it done but not having the right circumstances for it. So i made my own, and took control of my life. As i reach 25yrs old soon, i feel like i just started living. And it feels good knowing i put time and effort for a better life.

I'm in that matrix, you know...... that go to work and be miserable, just to come home & do it all over again routine. I can see why my moms used to come home exhausted and unhappy. i said to myself ill never become that, but slowly I'am.


I'm 25 going on 26 and i feel like 25-35 is the last window to really achieve ur dreams...of course over 35 u can reach ur goals BUT it gets harder as u get older


I been going crazy lately, losing touch of reality....I want to be successful so bad and grind all day....i hate my job with a passion but i have bills to pay....i can see why criminals risk everything chasing success...its like, whats the point of living just to barely survive

I'm right there with you breh, just turned 25 a few days ago. and I feel the same way. some bullshyt.

 

[Nismo]

In life, people tend to get stuck with one question. That being, what do I want to be? Its only natural because this question has been instilled in our minds at a very early age. However the question is off by one word. Its not what you want to be what you should be searching for, its who do you want to be? Once you figure that out, the picture will become a lot clearer.

It took me 24 years to truly understand (feel, believe) what he was saying in that video. He was about the same age in that vid. It's defnitely true, your life will never be the same again.

I will share some of my thoughts and you guys can take away whatever you want from them:

"In life, people tend to get stuck with one question. That being, what do I want to be? Its only natural because this question has been instilled in our minds at a very early age. However the question is off by one word. Its not what you want to be what you should be searching for, its who do you want to be? Once you figure that out, the picture will become a lot clearer."

"Material wealth is an illusion. True wealth lies in the spirit."

"Rid yourself of ego, you will be at peace."

"One is like an ocean. Water flows calmly throughout your body, wave by wave, and then witthin a blink of an eyed the waves get turbulent. When one discovers the mysteries of their deep ocean, turbulent waves will never appear to be turbulent ever again."

Basically. You have to nurture your talents. But chasing dreams is absolutely unacceptable. Concrete goals are the minimum (it shouldn't be money or you are basically limiting yourself, the ultimate goal is greatness). This is why so many successful people will all tell you about the time they went for broke. I don't think it comes easy for anyone who is self-made.

I havent reach that place of darkness

It's not darkness, it's the realization that life ain't what it's cracked up to be. I've accomplished enough, I'm good. If I died tomorrow I think I'd low key be okay with it.

You too young to feel that way boo...

I don't think I am. I've been thinking like this since I was a teenager.
