Feeling Lost in Your 20s 

Hey everyone! :) First of all, a huge thank you for taking the time off your day to watch this video, it truly means a lot!

Turning 23, It seems people born in the year 2000-2003 are feeling the same way. We are the first children of the internet, The people that built this current society and now in our 20's we are being the active builders. Let's not get lost my sweet internet generation. We will find ourselves in this sea of opportunity.

I think no one talks enough about how good the cinematic is in this video, every scene felt like I was watching a movie.

At 29 I was lost, not enough pay my wife left me for a another dude, I took time to reinvent myself and work harder & smarter. Currently leading a good life, six figure + income, I have a gf that loves me. I travel the world and I will be 33 next month. You can pull through too. I love the honesty in your story hang in there

As a 31 yo dude, I'd like to say that the 23yo confusing phase is a classic from my experience and my surrounding's experience. The arrival to the adult routine world can be a real agression. And the confusion does not get better. Though, you learn to make peace with yourself with time, and you learn how to live with your confusion, until it takes less and less space in your mind. So I agree with the fact that the 20s is probably the most difficult phase of life, but it gets better after, I promise. You know better who you are, who you want to be, and you're still confused about a lot of things, but it's ok, and you understand it's ok. Besides, you realize that no one is perfect whatever the age. So you're not worst than the others. Anxiety disappears when you understand you are exactly where you're supposed to be. Even if it's not perfect, it's your own path of life, and it's building you. So you are always exactly where you're supposed to be. You just have to follow life, and make decisions and changes when it feels like the right moment. My humble advice would be : "Don't overthink life too much and try to keep focus on the present moment. Don't stay stuck in the past cause it does not exist anymore, don't fear the future cause it does not exist yet. Feel what you have to feel, enjoy your time with the people that matter to you, and learn how to listen to your own opportunities. Have the courage to change what feels wrong, accept what can't be changed, and look forward tomorrow, cause every day is a new opportunity to rest, or to make a change in your life, or to enjoy a precious moment".

"No one really has everything figured out, no matter the age, we learn as we grow " . The calmness and satisfiction this line gave me is inexpressible.

"20s will be the best time of your life" is such an 80s or 70s terminology that doesn't apply anymore. I spent most of my 20s broke living paycheck to paycheck trying not to be homeless while studying. I dont know why these expectations are thrusted upon us when we're not ready, but its such a bs saying that doesn't apply anymore in the modern times

I’m 28. Nearly at the end of my 20s. I’ve made a lot of progress, but I’ve failed hard and I’ve failed a lot, and I live in constant fear that I wasted my time at the crossroads of life. But there’s another part of me that says “maybe I didn’t”, and I’m trying to listen to that.

I’m 22 and feeling lost myself, been out of university for a year and haven’t been able to find a job, still living with my parents. Life feels very stagnant currently. I do have a plan though, I’m going to be going back to college again to try getting into engineering in September. Hopefully things will be more exciting after that

To anyone who reads this, I see you and I know you'll make it. Don't give up. So many people are rooting for you :)

Thank you for this video. Im 20, currently sitting in my room in the middle of the night, thinking a lot and getting really anxious about my future because right now, I have completly nothing going for me. My social skills suck and meeting new people is super hard, but at the same time I feel extremely lonely. I have barely any money, no job (working on it though), still living with my parents and feeling like a nuisance (even though they probably dont think of me like that). Im really skinny and dont like my body, but at the same time too lazy to work on it. Hell, I dont even have a drivers license. After finishing highschool I started having a feeling of urgency - if I wont figure everything out quickly, I'll end up as a total fuckup. I know its not necessarily true, but the feeling is there and I can't do anything about it. In a month and a half I'll become a freshman, Im hoping that I'll be able to start working on some of the things from the list,, and begin getting my life together. 5 minutes of this video made me a little bit less anxious, and a little bit more optimistic about the future, which is probably the biggest positive change in the last 4 months. Im truly thankful for that.

This really hits hard for me. I'm almost 23 too. I have a career plan in place, but it was never what I wanted to really do. I still don't know what I want my life goal to be. My parents are seriously putting the pressure on me now to find a career, despite it not being as easy as they think. I'm glad to hear I'm not alone with this.

Being 24 and losing my sense of identity was the biggest challenge I faced a couple years back. 26 now, still finding out more about myself than I knew then and this video hits right where it needed to. Life's about the journey, we'll figure it out.

I’m 23, just graduated college a week ago. My grades and Resume would say I should have a brilliant future but I have never ever felt more lost. Everything you said in this video is pure truth. I’m a guy who rarely ever cries, but this made me tear up. Depression has kidnapped the meaning and motivation from my life and it’s time I spring up and try living life better. Thank you for this amazing video! ❤

I lost my mom at 23, you wanna talk about feeling lost? I was the embodiment of lost, but because of that loss it opened up my heart. Now here I am at 26, about to finally move out of my dad’s house and in with my amazing girlfriend. While I’m also going back to school so keep your head up. Walk tall and love yourself.

I myself am 23. Ive graduated college last June and I can't find a job I got my degree for. This video has definitely resonated with me. Especially the part about falling into being comfortable. I've been having it rough when it came to motivation. Thank you for the kind words. It's honestly encouraging to hear what you've shared. It makes me want to climb out of the hole I've put myself in.

I’m 27 turning 28 soon and one thing I can say is that these periods of your life will come and go. I went through this fase about 4 years ago after a breakup. I lost myself completely and I thought the pain would never go away - but it did! Now, 4 years later i’m in the same position again. I met a new girl about 2 years ago who turned my world upside down. We traveled the world and made some beautiful and incredible memories together. I found the happiness in life that I thought I lost forever. However, life can take some unexpected turns at times and we broke up a couple months ago. Now i’m in the exact same position again, alone, feeling lost and broken, not having found my passion or goals in life.. Not knowing what to do, where to go.. And that’s okay! That’s the beautiful thing about life, when one door closes another one openes and even though it sucks I know from experience that these hard times makes us stronger than we’ve ever been and I know that everything will be okay in the end! Also, I want to say that you really have a gift making videos Rolands. This is an amazing piece of art - keep it up. Much love to everyone out there. Everything will be okay!❤

Thanks... I'm 29 about to be 30 and Ive never felt more lost in my life. Procrastination is my biggest enemy by far. Hopefully will get out of this funk soon. Thanks for the video and the kind words.

I just turned 20 and this video was exactly what i needed to hear. I appreciate the message bud, thank you.

same age, same identical situation. It's almost like my thoughts came out from my head and became a video I randomly found on my RU-vid home. Thank you mate for this piece of art that is beautiful and makes me feel less alone!

I'm 22, and starting university in september after being a high school dropout/drug addict. I was so incredibly lost earlier and it took me a long time to heal and bounce back, I hope anyone reading this finds hope if they're lost/depressed. I now live with hope for my future, and I'm putting in the work to achieve my dreams, despite being "behind" my peers who have already graduated.

Your title is what drew me in, I stayed and listened because I can relate to this. When I was 22 years old my mother had went to the hospital for her final time. She was terminally sick with cancer. She was fighting for over 16 years. I was out of town when she was rushed to the hospital, so when I heard she was sick I rushed the 80 miles back home as fast as possible. I was considered head of household at that point and faced a decision that still fucks with me to this day, ending my mothers dialysis and life support. She was unresponsive when I got there. I sat there next to her the whole time, as she slept for 3 days in hospice. At that point, I kept easing her that it was okay to let go and that I'll figure things out as I go. I sat there next to her in hospice when she opened her eyes and made eye contact with me as she took her last breath, something that I'll never forget. Now, I'm just shy of turning 27, my twenties are blowing on by faster than I thought they'd go. Life hasn't been easy on me, I wish my mother was still around as she was my best friend. I visit my dad everyday as they were married 37 years and I hate to see him alone. I work 50+ hours a week and whenever I can get a lick of free time I like to escape into the woods to go camping, kayaking and hiking, as I feel the most stress and worry free during those activities. Its coming up on 4 years without my mother and I still struggle with her loss, recently I figured I'd call her to wish her a happy 4th of July, until I remembered I can't do that anymore... what a kick to the gonads that was... If you've made it this far, please don't give up. There's people around who care about you and want to watch you grow & do good things for yourself. I have to keep reminding myself of that too at times.

Turning 20… never felt so lonely and lost in my life before. It’s frightening because I have no idea what I should do with my life… Life’s hard right now.

I am 22 and struggling to find my path and purpose. I was just lost as you are. This video gave me a sense of hope and motivation through my endeavors. I am finally taking the next step of my life. Cheers to us. Hope we can all make it.

I'm 22 and I'm glad I found your video in the right time. I feel so lost since I was 20 and I'm still figuring out while my peers know what they doing with their life. But that's fine, it'll be alright. The last part video give me hope, there's always a light at the end of tunnel. Great video!

It's crazy how much damage comparison can do. Just being present and enjoying the moment is what being young should be all about. Not about having everything figured out and having a massively successful life. It might seem like a hypocritical thing to say for people who know me and my life currently, but I still strongly believe that 20s should be wild and, well, uncertain. Uncertain is fun. Thanks a lot for this video essay. Aesthetically beautiful, and tells a good story! :))

17 going on 18 next year, it just feels unreal, like life is starting to feel short. I’ve spent most of my teenage years procrastinating without a girlfriend so far, and hopefully I get there one day. 2020 didn’t make things better either. Man, watching and writing RU-vid comments just hits different at 1:00 am, and I’m just venting to a bunch of strangers online who will probably never read this. Reminds me of a Pink Floyd song, “every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time, plans that either come to naught, or half a page of scribbled lines […] the time is gone, the song is over, thought I’d something more to say.” Edit: high school for me will be over in a few more weeks, just 4 more exams to go. I had graduation last week. I asked the girl that I liked out, plenty more fish in the sea. I failed two of the more important classes I needed to get into uni. Probably have to take a bridging course. Picked up something new though, photography. I got an old Canon AE-1 Program from a mate, that will at least keep me busy from the boredom that is surely to come. My friends and I haven’t talked since graduation, seems as though we are already becoming distant, even though I hope that isn’t the case. It does seem inevitable though. I don’t want that to happen. I would do anything for them, heaven and earth just if I could spend one more day with them. One more day. Edit 2: a lot has happened. I started talking to a girl again that I hadn’t spoken with for like a year. Turns out she had a boyfriend. Fast forward about a couple months, she says to me that she’s lost feelings for him, fast forward another month and they have broken up. About a week later we are hanging out, and we go back to hers and we are getting drunk. She confesses to me that she has had feelings for me since near the end of that last relationship. Me, taken aback by this, because no girl has ever taken a romantic interest in my life, I’m astounded, and I feel the same way about her. A week later, we do the deed, but she feels mortified about this, says she’s not ready for a relationship, I ignored this because it was wishful thinking. Same day she says she doesn’t want to lead me on, but I say it certainly feels like it. This pisses her off, we go back to my car and sort it all out there. Later that week, she texts me saying she’s about to lose her shit. I head over and she’s cut her arm open. A week later everything seems as though it has been smoothed out. But I find out she’s had Tinder installed. A few days ago she’s matched with this guy and she’s considering dating him instead. I find this to be complete bullshit because I’ve known her for 4 years, she’s known this guy for 3 days. I’ve completely lost it, I’ve lost my shit myself, though I don’t want to tell her that and probably shouldn’t. I kinda want to kill myself I’m not going to lie. First woman on the planet who has confessed feelings for me, and she goes and does that. I’m gonna stop editing this comment, I’ve already over shared a enough on this shit as it is.

Im 26, feeling so lost, and like I am falling behind my peers now that I am working towards switching career paths. Procrastination, self-doubt, and dealing with emotions and trauma that I pushed deep inside by smoking weed constantly the past 5 years have been my biggest enemies. I feel myself coming to the other side now though. I've realized and accepted that life will be a constant cycle of ups and downs, losing people you love to break-ups, death, and even just drifting apart. Maybe that sounds sad, but knowing things are constantly changing actually gives me hope. There can always be a brighter future ahead. And make sure to really FEEL and ENJOY your joyous moments. Good luck to everyone in this comment section

Thanks a lot for sharing. I'm 26 and never felt so lost before. Some of my friends are getting married, start a business, talks about future while I'm going nowhere, just doing normal office things. Hopefully we can through this all.

This really teared me up. Sometimes RU-vid knows somehow exactly what you need to watch. These damn algorithms are too good! Being 21 and almost 22 now, I've finished University, lived with my folks for a year and have just moved into a new flat. In the last week I have also been through a rollercoaster with a break-up, family beef, job security down the toilet, valentines day and it just feels like a lot. My first ever love, which hurt bad but I'm trying to remind myself it was for the best. I have quite a lot of close people in my life including a great family and set of friends, who throughout this have consistently checked up on me, but sometimes I can't reply, even after I see it. I don't really understand why I feel the need to do this, but I do enjoy peace off devices sometimes and sometimes I don't want to explain what's been going on again for the 3rd time or whatever. I related a lot to this video, the feeling of life in a slump and unsure what the next steps are. So much uncertainty can cause chaos in your head, but I'm trying to redirect myself to focus as much as possible in the present, and look to the other side, as you mentioned in your beautifully crafted video. This week has been super long already and it's only Wednesday night, but I am learning life as a new form. I am realizing now how much I missed talking to those which I am interacting with more as of late. Something about safety in numbers, and also having someone you trust to just hear you out, who let you explain your thoughts a bit more, to allow yourself understand your stance on it just a bit better. Mental health is super important and I am glad a lot more people are aware of it than ever before, because we gotta look out for eachother. Our sense of connection is what grounds us, so do what you can to bring that back. I know it's helped me a lot. Anyway, I'm sure it'll get better. Whatever is going on for the rest of you just hope for something better. I'm not religious but sometimes I feel as though my Oma (Dutch for Grandma) is watching over me as an angel, and has my sht sorted for me. My path is my path and she is here with me all the time. There are people that look out for us that are alive and around us, but we may just not realise it. You matter and WE matter and people always underestimate their impacts on people's lives. Stay strong - I know I'm trying.

you don't know how much i needed to watch something like this, thank you

I’m 25 and everything you just said is true. You pretty much summed up all of my 20s up until now, except I’ve never had a girlfriend yet. I’m still trying to figure my career goals and aspirations, trying to find a wife and deciding on my future education. On top of being broke and still living with my parents as well. One of the things I’ve learned is that everything will just come at the right time, and you have to take your time and not rush things in life and just live it in the present. It’s hard, but everything will work out.

As the first video, this is beyond impressive. Keep it up 🔥

i love the simple warmth that video has inside i cried for 15 minutes thanks, dude.

this video found me and im really thankful for that! it helped me a lot in trying to understand myself..... thanks mate i wish you a happy life not only for u but for ery1 whos here with the same problem!

Good thing I won't be lost in my 20s soon anymore. I'm turning 30 next year, so I'll be lost in my 30s from then on.

It's okay to feel lost in your 20's. Explore, keep an open mind and you'll find your way.

Thank you for sharing this with the world; as a fellow lost person, I hope you too find your way.

At the end i felt that so much so i felt some tears, while sitting in my machine at work and looking at all people around me that work and hearing you saying at the same time we all just trying to find our own way and so.. that hit me in a good way but also very sensitive❤️ thank you so much!

I‘m 19 and strangely I can totally relate to the video. Sometimes I feel pretty empty and lonely and overwhelmed by negative thoughts and emotions that I think I’m somehow depressed. I used to have much confidence but suddenly since 1-2 years it has vanished away. But on the other side I know that I can rake responsibility for my thoughts and my life but it‘s hard to sustain that „energy“. But I think I get better and better at it. Strangely I think that all other people around me are able to cope with it more „pleasantly“ and don‘t have these „exestential“ „worries“ 😂. But probably that‘s only a superficial impression. Hope you have a great time and remember: love and compassion is the key ❤ What helps is talking to you like you would to your best friend. Become your own best friend and don‘t believe everything what your mind „says“ to you. Sometimes it is true rubbish and only hindering you from continuing!

Same age, almost 23; same period, a bit lost, and overwhelmed from everything. Isolation becoming stronger, and still not giving up. Just searching a reason to live this world in myself. Every word of you is a rock and a wing the same moment. Thank you. Don’t stop to make videos like that, to expose yourself. U brave

Honestly this video, the camerawork, the script, just everything about it is just so calming and inspirational. It’s a real reminder to us young adults that whatever happens we will always found our path.

This video managed to find it's way to me. I just have to say, glad to see that you aren't alone in those confusing moments. Amazing video. Thanks for shedding some light on this. And if anyone else sees this, like I did. Best of luck. We can do this. Our one "thing" is out there somewhere. But we still have to put in that effort to go and find it.

Procrastination is truly our biggest enemy, at 20 years I relate to this so much, losing people and gaining new ones. Going through all these transitions while on the self discovery journey.. it's just a lot . But we have you to calm us down and remind us to keep on going.. thank you for this❤❤❤

Somehow seeing all these comments and acknowledge that I am not the only one going through this made me feel better. We all gonna make it.

Very brave of you to open up and share some of the thoughts a lot of us might relate to, but don’t talk about.

thank you man thank you. turning 20 in a couple months. just stressed as hell and this definitely made me sit back and realize that it’s okay to feel like nothing is going your way. cause it won’t a lot. life is life and you enjoy it by what you make of it. appreciate this video, youtube must know we all lost right now too.

I turned 20 years old four months ago and this video perfectly describes how i feel and now that I know there are more people feeling this way ,I feel some sort of comfort and I've started embracing this feeling. I'm very glad i discovered this channel. Keep up the good work man!

Bro, I am close to 23 years old, quite close to your age, going to a great grad school and yet I felt each and every word spoken in this video. You just explained something so inexplicable in such lucid terms, it just made my day a little better. Thanks for this amazing vid.

Thank you!! I'm 27 now and I think its good to be reminded that your are not the main character in everyones life and that everyone has their own struggles to deal with. Makes it easier to see that we are all humans and that no one is alone with that

Thank you for taking the time and making this video. I have been struggling with this for a while. I unknowingly fill up my schedule and am just realizing that it's for the sole reason that I dont't have to face the reality that I dont know what I want from life. But at the same time I recognize it's a blessing since every door is unlocked. I just have to have courage in opening them and seeing where they take me. Thank you.

thank you so much for this

I'm in my late teens, but I've already been starting to feel this kind of fear for my 20s. Growing up in this digital world can often make the world feel so small and narrow, and so these types of videos definitely help with coping with that . I hope you turn out to make more videos in the future :)

I'm 29 and still as lost as ever. But I know myself now. And I've learned to just join the dance. There's a lot I would have changed but I do not regret the trial and error of finding out who I am. Just know that this lost "searching" isn't a problem to be solved, but a process everyone experiences.

ahhh I’m almost 23 too and i have NEVER felt more lost and confused. thank you for putting all these feelings into words🥺

This video describes literally everything I am going through right now, thank you. It’s good to be reminded that this isn’t a situation unique to myself and that everyone has their own struggles that can I can relate to.

this video resonate with me so much, I've never seen someone with exactly the same struggles, the same thoughts that I think daily and all of that put in a cinematic masterpiece. I'm 29 and I'm still lost, but loosing yourself is the first step to actually find your true self

Every single word you said in this video is just so relatable to me.. I'm 24 now, the last year was the worst year for me (yes my 23) I was so lost, depressed and just don't have the power to move on, actually I lost a person who was so important to me, the person who has raised me up and taught me everything at the same year of my graduation, actually at the same month... It was so hard to keep moving on, I was telling myself that I can handle it but I couldn't, not just because of my lost but everything was going the wrong way, there was some days I just want to go to sleep and keep crying under my blanket till the morning and I wouldn't talk to anyone one, I just want to be alone that time but also I wishеd if I got some help from anyone.. By the time I get better, I've been planning for the next year and I want to do more for myself and just live peacefully.. I still feel lost till this day, and sometimes don't feel that I want to keep what I'm doing, but it's okay cuz I know I'm a human being, if myself want a rest then it's okay, but I don't lose hope.. I'll just keep going and I'm so thankful to where I'm now and to what I've achieved.

Appreciate your honesty a lot. We need more people being open about their fears/struggles since its a part of everyones life. Thank you for sharing this with us ❤

You have no idea how much this video helped everyone! This video made me feel better and don't feel bad for wanting to seek self improvement, we are all lost so we can find the light in our future! Stay strong everyone! 💪

I never comment on RU-vid but man, as a 22 year old who’s going through a similar situation and feeling the same emotions: thank you. It’s comforting knowing that there are people (whether you know them or not) going through similar journeys. I recently started making videos again on a new channel after taking a lot of time off and essentially deleting my old channel. I thought that part of me as a kid died as I started getting older, but videos like yours are an inspiration. Definitely subscribing, keep it up. Amazing work.

Stuff tends to get better. I realized I don't have to feel lost, because there is no path set out for me. If there is no path, there is no way to feel lost. It's just a constant doing whatever feels right.

This felt incredibly genuine. I appreciate the authenticity this video gives me and I hope you continue making similar content with amazing cinematography and storytelling. Much love and I wish for your success! ❤

I appreciate what you did here. It clearly resonated with me. 🥺 I hope for what ever life pushes me, either good or bad. 💕

What a great video! I could not help but relate with everything that you mentioned. I just turned 27 and after feeling lost for most of my early 20s, I can say that you nailed everything. People come and go, but they bring lessons that we can all learn from. My life turned around for the better at 25 and I can honestly say that having a supportive group of friends and family have led me to find peace even when life gets rough.

I'm 22 years old and I'm moving city to pursue my dream, I've found it all so overwhelming but this video has helped me so much. Thank you!

I have been feeling lost for a couple of month now, but in the past couple weeks it’s hit me hard, I am seeking out help, but this video hit the nail on the head, and gave me something I was searching for. Thank you so much for deciding after three months of procrastinating to make this❤

This video just made me feel a lot lighter. Thanks a lot. Anxiety and stress have been really tough and life gets complex sometimes. It just helps breath better to find some light sparks like this one once in a while.

This video is perfect. I’m 20, going into my final year at university, and I feel quite lost. I’m trying to prepare to go into the real world finally whilst also still trying to figure out who I am. I procrastinate a lot and I hate it, I want to be better, but like you said, it’s more comfortable to just not do the important things. I want to be the person I want to be, but my oh my is all of this overwhelming. Sometimes it gets too much and I cave in, but I know I’ll get through this and figure things out. I hope that you, everyone in the comments, and anyone who may read this get things figured out too! Videos like these help us feel less alone, they’re more important than I think the creator realises. Thank you so much

Since everyone is opening up I'll do it as well: I'm 25, studied electronics and IT and doing a PhD in computer science in Prague (but I'm originally from France). The last months were just horrible. I find out I don't want to do this with my life, I gave a lot to my studies and to have my degree and now I realise this work is just absurd, alienating, senseless.. added to that the complete loneliness of moving to another country. I can't help but feeling like a complete failure with this huge amount of time spent on this. I'm thinking about quitting. I'm just tired of this vertigo which freaks me out, I'm always anxious and find it impossible to imagine my future me, it feels like a black wall. So I'm writing songs at the same time.. but man... If I ever sort it out, I'll just punch every man who tells me that the 20s are the best years of your life. Fack them all, seriously.

thanks so much bro. You have no idea how much this has cleared my mind. I beleive everyone can find a tranquility so to speak about themselves if they just live simply

What a great video! The message itself is wonderful, but the camera shots that accompany it along with the nice, calming music just make this video incredible!

You know, I'm 25 and I still feel the same. I grew, I learned and I became something close to an adult, but I still feel like I don't fit in or that I'm not made for it. So, I relate a lot with your video and what you said.

24 and couldn't relate more. Thanks for overcoming the obstacles to create and share this. Much love homie

thank you for that! almost started crying in the end. needed to hear this

Thank you so much for these amazing words. I've also just gone through the toughest breakup from whom I believed for years would remain the constant sunshine, love and best friend in my life for always; only for it to come crashing down out of nowhere, for no particular reason other than 'change'. These have been the darkest few months of my life, but I'm lucky to have the best family. I keep going not only for them, but for myself too, because as you said; new doors have opened up to infinite possibilities, and there are so many of us in the same situation. And like many others watching this video, I'm very grateful for how incredibly positive, meaningful and effective it is. Made me smile a lot. Thanks again man ❤

I love everything about this video: The calmness, the truths and probably most of all the cinematography. You are able to show your viewer wonderfull scenes that take our breaths away. I love you as a fellow human and feel every word you said. Take care man. ❤

Just turned 23 today. This made my day better, a bit less lonely, a bit more hopeful. Really appreciate this :)

Hey. Thank you for this video. Reading all these comments made me realize that I'm not the only one with this feeling. We have the whole time to explore and discover ourselves. Time won't wait for anyone and we need to keep moving forward making great memories and moments.

Thank you man! You made me feel more at peace with feeling lost. Actually it is kind of exciting that you don't know where you are going. That is how I reframe it, when I get overwhelmed. Many "older adults" wish they would have the amount of opportunities that I have right now. So, it is a gift. And you made me see that a bit clearer. Thank you :)

This video brought me a deep sense of relaxation. Just the acknowledgment that this is a common experience for young adults makes me feel better about having so little figured out.

I’m 22 set to be 23 in January. I feel derealization and panic attacks that are just exhausting to keep up with while going to college and working is so difficult to balance. My brain is eating my personality and soul. I have not been the same since 18. Feels like you spend all of your 20s being depressed. I have depressing thoughts I never experienced as a teen when as a teen I thought I was depressed but I really wasn’t and could control my emotions back then. My brain feels high jacked. I have been having health issues since I had Lyme disease and PCOS and it’s shit. How do people find the will to actually live through going to work everyday? It’s just awful that I had an easier time controlling my emotions as a child rather than as an adult. It makes no sense.

most important thing I learned in my twenties, it doesn't ever get any easier, you just get better at handling it.

Thank you! Thank you so much! My 20's just begun (I became 20 yo in July) and i started to feel list recently! This IS just what i need! This is such a relief to hear that! No words can describe how it helps! Thank you!

What a message, stay strong people, life is a journey, time does not forgive, we are just memories and experiences

"Let go of all the expectations that you have and just live life, day by day." damn, that hits so hard :"))

wow. this videos really changed the way i look at my life. enjoying every single day is a key to happy life. hope everyone going thorugh struggles will win that fight and will be happy again.

Great video. This gave me some comfort in knowing that other people are in the same headspace as me. If you’re reading this keep pushing.

Even without the message and the comfortable voice behind the screen, I still feel like the images the colours are so beautiful 😍. This is really impressive and relaxing and chill and magical. Amazing art dude 👍

Thank you 🙏🏼. I’m 26, and even if everything looks good on the paper from the outside, I’m terribly lost inside. This video helped me to see I am not alone ✨🥺

i'm 22 currently and i feel so lost in my life, watching this video kind of make me feel good because I'm not the only one out here feeling like that, thank you

This is so fricken true, I'm 20 years old right now and this video is extremely relatable right now. It just feels like I have to make the right choices right now, otherwise I'm setting my future self-up for failure. I feel pressured into having to make the right perfect choice for myself, despite there being literal millions of things and ways I can go about my life right now. There's so much choice, so many ways I can go about this, so much information and decisions being thrown at me. It all feels so overwhelming, and it feels like I have to make the right choice or else I've screwed up my life already. But I like the positivity in this video, it's given me a sliver of hope that I should just pursue something that makes me happy, and go for it. Hopefully, it all turns out well for me. As well as all of you, my fellow 20year olds.

Dude... this video is a lot. I've been like that since my 23, I'm 26 now... I've learned a lot these years, and still doing it. Just embrace the processes... I'm through some things again but wiser, I guess... your video helped me a lot clear my foggy day and remember those things. Thanks, man, greetings from Argentina.

I turn 20 in seven months and there’s so much expectation to have my life together- to know what I want to do. But I don’t. College is draining me because I have no real motivation towards a career path, and I don’t know what I want to do with myself. This was a reassuring video

This makes me wanna cry I’m 22 and this is like a mirror of my life thank u I needed this rn

My good god, this is one of the BEST videos I've ever watched on RU-vid. So soothing, so genuine and just so warm. The entire video most of all was SUPER relatable. I'm 21 and goin through an identity crisis, just unable to get it together. Thanks for this again, it was truly comforting and inspiring. Plus, I loved the how this gave me like 80s/90s vibes, idk if I'm the only one but this looked so vintage and hence, so real and lovable. Kudos to you.

This video resonates so much with my thoughts. I'm 20, I'll be 21 soon, but I've never felt more lost. I have friends, studies, projects and work, from the outside everything looks incredibly successful. But inside I can't feel 100% pleasure from all this, relationships are constantly not close enough, work does not attract, projects come and go. But most importantly, recently I realized how many people are around and how few of those whose thinking fully responds to me. I'm constantly trying new things and clinging to new relationships with people. And your video gave me such a sense of acceptance and understanding. Whatever happens to us, we will not be alone

Let this be an example that talking about feelings is important. All problems start inside us, we need to let them out! Keep going, bro! ♥

Man, I cannot thank you enough. This video helped me so much. Im about to turn 22 and I have felt like this for what feels like forever now. Your video made me realize that its normal to feel like this and that I am not alone. Hope everything is going well for you.

Dude, I compeletely mesmerized by your video, I didnt even realize my tears fall. Thank you for making this video
