>They call it the "Quarter-life Crisis." It is when you stop
>going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are many things
>about yourself that you didn't know and may not like. You start
>feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get
>scared because you barely know where you are now. You start realizing that
>people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were
>so close to aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met, and the
>people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones. What
>you don't recognize is that they are realizing that too, and aren't really
>cold, catty, mean or insincere but that they are as confused as you.
>
>You look at your job... and it is not even close to what you thought you
>would be doing, or maybe you are looking for a job and realizing
>that you are going to have to start at the bottom and that scares you.
>
>Your opinions have gotten stronger. You see what bothers are doing and find
>yourself judging more than usual because suddenly you realize that you have
>certain boundaries in your life and are constantly adding
>things to your list of what is acceptable and what isn't.
>
>One minute, you are insecure and then the next, secure.
>
>You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life.

>You feel alone and scared and confused. Suddenly, change is the enemy and
>you try and cling on to the past with dear life, but soon realize that the
>past is drifting further and further away, and there is nothing to do but
>stay where you are or move forward.
>
>You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such
>damage to you. Or you lay in bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone decent
>enough that you want to get to know better. Or maybe you love someone but
>love someone else too and cannot figure out why you are doing this because
>you know that you aren't a bad person.
>
>Getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic. You go
>through the same emotions and questions over and over, and talk with your
>friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a decision.
>You worry about loans, money,the future and making a life for yourself...
>and while winning the race would be great, right now you'd just like to be a
>contender!
>
>What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to it. We are
>in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can to
>figure this whole thing out.
