Whenever I think of the future, I can’t see anything hopeful. I just see me carrying out a tedious life, even though people tell me my future looks bright. I’m not failing, but trying hard to study and it seems to be paying off. Then go to uni. But afterwards I can’t see anything.
What if I don’t find something fulfilling to do?
I look at some people who lead normal lives, doing a little job that they are genuinely happy with, and I can never see myself being happy with anything, though I’ve said it to be a dream 1,000 times when I was younger.
I’m just very scared for the future, and don’t have much hope for it. I can’t really see a point in just living. I don’t feel I have any purpose. It’s a horrific feeling and it’s hard to cope with.

Maybe you’ll have kids. Is that a goal for you?
I just gaduated college and I’m 23. I’m actually more miserable now than I was. Ive been depressed for 6 months and it’s only getting worse. A lot of things have happened to me durring which. I was chasing a dream and saw it crumble. I realized that I was living a delusional for a while. It’s very discouraging. I have a major I can fall back on but I don’t care for it. I always had my head at the clouds and when I finally put in my all, it blew up on me. I feel like I’m waking up into a bad dream instead of waking up from it like I want to. I feel that there is no future that is bright and I lost all interest in things. There’s nothing in this world that I want. I just want to sleep forever. This is me.. For you? You are probably headed right on the path of what you hope to achieve. I have more hope in others than myself. Don’t be like me. Hang in there.
No, I find children quite annoying, and the whole idea of pregnancy and giving birth almost embarrassing in some way. I’d much prefer the company of animals 🙂
Wow, I seriously feel for you. Thanks though, for the encouraging words, it’s almost comforting to know a daunting future doesn’t haunt just me. If you can dream like that once, I’m sure you will again. Thanks.
I know how you feel. For me it’s like ‘why should I even get up? I don’t have anything to look forward to..’ I dont know if you do feel the same way but I get what you mean. I used to have giant dreams of succes, but now they’re gone. Hop eoyu find something:)
