Quarter Life Crisis is like a trap. The thought that we're rethinking our direction in life or starting a new phase but we thought that we're too late to start anew is never easy.

It's tough. It makes you pile a lot of unorganized thoughts in the head, finding no assurance of embracing a wonderful path ahead.

It's hard. Everything seems like a mess in your life, as messy as your thoughts as the whispers of thr enemies keep on fueling negative thoughts that you will not make it to your goals.

What is Quarter Life Crisis?

Quarter Life Crisis is an anxiety of doubting the path that you are taking in life. For instance, you have this feeling that the direction that you are taking in life is not something that you want, or you feel like it's too late to take another path anew. You will have this constant anxiety that makes you feel so stressed just by thinking abouy your life and the path that you are taking in life.

As for me, Quarter Life Crisis was the reason why I want to unwind almost all the time because I feel unhappy and demotivated by what I'm doing before. The reason why I simply want to have positive people in my life because I easily get affected by negative thoughts. The reason why I question a lot if I'm still on the right path because the reality is not what I'm expecting. The reason why I feel pressured. The reason why it's hard for me to believe in myself. I lost my self-confidence and I almost lost who I am. I feel like the path is not a match for me.

I remember that it was after I graduated from my degree, I have this constant feeling of doubts if my path is still the path that's for me since I was still not placed on the dream that I had in mind. It was an expectation versus reality for me. Moreover, Whenever I scroll on my social media accounts, I feel inferior. With that, I decided to deactivate my social media for a while. I decided to isolate myself from people.

But through that isolation, I decided to improve myself and cope up with the quarter life crisis I was experiencing. With my constant watching of motivational videos, to the word of God which uplifted my soul, and to the people who stayed on my side, the signs of this QLC have gradually left me. I'm just thankful for I'm learning to see the bright side of it and gain it as a lesson. Above all, I'm thankful to God for He redeems my once dull days, and He opens my eyes to new possibilities.

So if you're going through this process, have faith, everything will come to pass soon. You're not alone. Fighting!
