@@JammKing-th7hl I agree to a degree but I much prefer other countries that skip a year before college to figure themselves out better. As well as this I really do recommend everyone have a second viable job they can do if they have time to learn the skills that way ur not permanently stuck with somthing. Obvious exceptions for Dr and lawyer due to not having time, resources, or money to do ANYTHING else for a long time

@@JammKing-th7hlthere’s a difference between “why do people expect us to learn at 10” and “why am I expected to pick the path of what I’m gonna do post high school which will impact my life for multiple years to come when I’m only 16” going to school at 10 years old wasn’t even mentioned in the original comment, where did you get that from?

​@@adararelgnel2695wrong

​@adararelgnel2695 So what? Let not the fear of having no time restrict you, especially by age. Imagine being told it's too late for college because you're 23. Should already know what to do at 17. Too old to start dating because you're 30. Waste of time to seek an education at 50.

only to realize that that time will continue to slip by until you realize it’s too late

This song is not exactly the precedence of depression, it’s something similar, but quite different. It’s mostly because it focuses on the thoughts on what makes someone sad, or to wonder what makes themselves sad.

this should be pinned

Turning 26 this year and just started college in Feb. I'm super glad I didn't jump into it from HS. Choosing to learn and being expected to learn has been a major change for me. I actually care about what I am doing now. I say take a break from school. Don't jump right into more school.

I'm almost 26 and was pushed into college after going through high school expecting not to survive into adulthood. I have no useful education nor a "career." I've traveled a lot and have a wife I love, so I gotta remind myself that living is the important thing.

I'm about to graduate from college with my first degree. I'm 31. There really is no right time to start or finish. Everyone is different and we all move at our own pace while trying to discover who we are.

good luck buddy! i wish you the best

Hey mate. I just wanted to say thanks for this comment. I'm 24, and I've been wanting to start college, but I got it in my head that I missed my window and that there's no point anymore. Examples like yours help me a lot to see that I'm wrong about that.

Right? I feel it as, the rules suck and I hate following them, but I don't think breaking the rules would be worth it for the benefits I get out of it.

Awwwwwwwwwww. I hope you feel better soon I feel you I've been there too got through it though.

Think you want to go back?

Felt this deeply.

I'm 26 and I just started going back to school because of a free tuition program in Massachusetts for people 25 and older. But I think that college is not a measure of intelligence or success, i think i used to think that way when i failed out the first time. But everybody has their own paths to take in life, and there are still ways to be successful. Try to remember your worth and try to fight for your happiness, see where that can take you.

Same homie, I'm going back this year. I am 30. ITs never to late. I just started getting comfortable with myself, lost some relationships I needed to lose and gained some back I didn't know I wanted. I'm learning about myself. Still tired, anxious, ADHD and troubled. But I'm getting there. You will to. From another awkward 30 year old, song still describes me. But I'm working on it.

You do know 15 year olds used to go over seas to war I think people have been pretty spoiled.

@@pobles577 Yeah, I have no right to compare the weight of deadly challenges that kids used to face a century ago, only thing I know is that most people, doesnt give a hell about that, and forget the horrors of past which is not going well Look at the antivaxxers, they think that vaccines are fake, yet people feared least fatal diseases some centuries ago

​​@@pobles577Spoiled? Did you go to war? We've created a world where most people don't HAVE to go to war. That's a good thing. Also people generally weren't fighting at 15, get your facts right. You sound like a Boomer who thinks "kids these days" are soft and weak.

God bless the world indeed

There's this guy, lets name Colin

He said he wants to be mine

But it doesn't really sit with me quite right

22 years old too and consistently having that exact experience/thought... I don't want to have to make plans for my future I just want to be okay for now...

​@@FiveEyedRaven I'm 27, the experience doesn't really change, just add mild alcoholism and you can feel your parts wearing out like an overused roomba as you approach 30.

​@terrancemuzic5157 Never forget about hope. It's okay to not know where you're going to go (honestly that can be exciting) but we need to hope and work for the future that the world has set for us.

Get help, please don't get to 30 before realizing that you will be here longer than you thought. Never having followed your dreams, or done the hard things that bring you to where you want to be. Where you really want to be of you have to still live this life. We all deserve better than that.

I'm doing quite well with my education but honestly I don't know what I wanna do when I grow up and I don't feel to pursue what I learned in college. And honestly I don't know what I'm gonna do. I don't have any talent except to study and getting good grade. I hope someone can help me 😔

Good line. I think it's "“Everybody’s telling me that I’m doing so well -- I try to trust them. Honestly, I find it hard to tell.”

My dad gaslights me like this. If your life seems off, it is. Find mentors (professors and professionals). Don’t rely on the therapists the school provides, they are still grad students. They can be a good sounding board, but they are just going off their own life experiences, they having “fixed” anyone before.

The conflicting needs for autonomy and structure. Confidence backed by experience is a powerful thing. It helps you seize opportunities. You'll have to make life unfold on your own strength, if you're able to work independently within a structure (rules)! set by more experienced people.

​@@chr.ist.ian_v2517 i feel you, only real option is try some stuff you could possibly imagine doing through eg internships. If you're American don't go getting a massive loan to study something you're unsure you even like. Otherwise try, it can never hurt. It's the only way one can learn about oneself. I know I definitely found out about what I DON'T like and bit by bit you can start seeing a path, even if you're bound to "fail", it's not bad. You never really do, it's the best way to learn

Yeah epecially if you're going to apply to a super competitive grad school. You just meet someone super impressive, and think "That's one spot less", and then you hear everyone's doing what you're doing. I mean fuck, and everyone's saying you're doing good, but that means nothing at some point. Then you hear of some super crazy hacks that you missed out on. I mean fuck again, I know three people who got into top 15 colleges with mediocre applications through some stupid program and lying about their financial status. One person's parents had off-shore bank accounts. There's a famous story about it in China. Two students are duking it out in their college classes. One is barely 10th place while the other is 1st. 1st place gets everything he wants, grinds his ass in hard-to-get positions, and eventually gets a respectable job. 10th place comes back from an overseas program, gets a great internship, and is given a management role, bossing 1st place around. 10th place had their parents set their path while 1st had to fumble around himself.

Important is a bit of a stretch

Speak for yourself.

Tips for college: - Do community college first, then transfer to a University later. Your first couple of years will all be general education classes and classes for your degree that are very basic and any school will have, so do them at a much cheaper community college before transferring to the school you actually want and the credits will transfer with you. - Take as many classes that start later in the day as you can. Whether you plan to party or not, you’re still gonna kick yourself for taking early classes - Learn as much about the campus before school starts as you can. Every school gives tours of campus for incoming students, take one. - If possible, don’t live on campus. Look for any rent listings nearby, students will almost certainly be renting out a house and need another roommate. It’ll be a lot cheaper than the cost of the room and board you’ll have to pay when you’re done with school. - Speaking of roommates, you won’t like having them at first. Roommates can and will be frustrating to you, even if they’re very nice and get along with you eventually you’ll get tired of living with them. That’s okay, and you aren’t a bad person for not wanting to live with them after a while, just hang in there and remember the good things about them to help. - Try to meet/talk to as many people as you can. This can be at parties, but also just at clubs or in class, in your dorm building, etc. Most schools now will even have a Discord channel or something similar that you can join, same for the clubs. - If you DO plan to party, make sure that somebody knows where you’re going, make sure you have a plan for a ride back, and don’t drink anything you didn’t watch get served to you. Always keep your cup against your chest, if they have a “candy bowl” (bowl full of random pills) please please PLEASE do not take from that. Doing some drugs can be fun, but please do them safely. - If you have chances to visit home, try not to take them often. You’re gonna miss home, a lot. You’re gonna feel like your childhood is over, like your life is over, like you’re never gonna get to be home again, but that’s what EVERYBODY goes through. I promise you aren’t the only one, the less you run back home over weekends or days off the better. The best way to fight that feeling is to let yourself enjoy being away, let yourself stay at school as much as you can. - Remember to take a breath and remember: you’re doing okay. Sometimes it’ll be fun, sometimes it’ll be stressful. But that’s just life, college is giving you a chance to start learning how to tackle adulthood without leaving you to the wolves, so when it’s getting hard or scary just remember that you can push through, it WILL be okay. - Look up as many of your books online as you can, because almost always there are ways to pirate them. And don’t feel bad for doing this, the university makes a bunch of money anyway. Sometimes you’ll get a tenured professor who’s cool and will straight up list the websites you can use for free books, otherwise just look online and you’ll find something. - If you can get a part time job, do. Looks good on a resume but more importantly it will get you the cash to buy gas and food, and often times the school itself will have work programs that make sure it doesn’t conflict with you schedule. - Go do the things you aren’t sure you’ll like, now is the time to find yourself. You never know if you actually might like something, and if you don’t you always have the power to leave. - Remember that things are almost never as good or as bad as they seem at the time. This has already been true and will continue to be true for your whole life, the bad times will seem like the worst and the good times will seem euphoric and better than anything. Just remember that like all of life, you will keep moving forward and these things will eventually pass. The breakup will pass, the bad grade will pass, the hangover will pass. Do not be afraid to live because you might go through bad times later, it is the bad times that give the good their meaning. You need both sunshine and rain for the flower of your life to grow.

I mean, when you have 20 things to do.. then five percent is the best you're going to be able to do. You wouldn't blame a child for being unable to lift 200 pounds, would you? No, if you needed them to, you'd have them do it five pounds at a time, and do some of it on different days. Even then, it seems that child should never have to do those things. Be gentle with yourself, but be firm.

Thanks for that

It’s true though, sometimes, throughout your whole life, you can be pressured to learn things that are too much, and overbear you.

Having been through it already. And gone to grad....do YOUR best. It's not about what you achieved, it's about being able to look back on it and say you honestly tried as hard as you could. That's how you make sure you lack regrets. I did a lot of things. Some panned out, some where dead ends. My health got bad later and some stuff I had been working on was suddenly not an option. So much changes over time. But I can look at my actions with pride and say, I always did the best I could. And when I didn't, I learned from it and grew as a person. You can do it. ^_^

Best of wishes to you as you continue on!

it's been the exact oposite for me. when I was in school my family always thought I would not amount to anything. I've proved them wrong by being sucessful and now even after not being in school anymore I still take a some of my time to learn new skills that I never would've thought of even WANTING to learn.

I've learnt more in the past 2 years than I learnt in my whole life and I am 24
