What should I do with my life? Can online therapy for young adults help?
Young adulthood is another major life phase in which you are expected to relish in the excitement and express nothing but drive, motivation and absolute joy for the new experiences to come. Reality: this can be a very intimidating, confusing, and perhaps even a lonely time in your life. This is normal. You’ve got so many unanswered questions swirling around in your brain! Who am I? What should I be doing? Does everyone else have this all figured out? What if I fail? What if I disappoint the people in my life? Why don’t I feel happy or excited? Why do I feel dread and anxiety?
What if I fail?
I want to validate whatever feelings you’re having, because, well…they’re valid! When we accept and validate the feelings we are having, then and only then, can we move forward with the business of life – successfully. Maybe you feel stuck in what to do next, maybe you feel scared about what’s coming next, maybe you feel anxious that you won’t succeed, maybe you feel sad thinking about the possibility of letting your family down. Whatever the case may be, please remember this is temporary and that more importantly you don’t have to go through it alone.
