I don’t Know who I I’m anymore…

It’s been a while from the last time that I’ve actually felt happy. I normally don’t like to talk to people about my problems because I don’t consider them important and I always think that I can handle them my self.. I use to be a person that knew what I wanted and where I wanted to go. Like everyone else, I changed. I feel disappointed in me because I do not know what kind of woman I want to become anymore. I don’t even have goals or dreams that I want to achieve because I don’t understand myself, like before. I have no friends because people think that I’m weird and boring. I live with my mom and feel trapped because I see the people that I graduated with (high school 13) experiencing a new life, while I’m still home, going to college and trying to figure out what to be. I I’ve always felt lonely and it’s destroying me inside.. And I don’t know how to take that feeling away anymore.. I want to be happy, focus and never again FEEL ALONE… I will really appreciate a good advise!

I've had similar feelings, it all takes time. College is a great thing and it's the right thing. All good things come to those who wait. You should try talking to some people, just be patient :)

Hey, looks like you're going through a pre-life crisis. I know it's hard to believe sometimes and everyone seems happy and settled but to be honest, most of us college kids are not settled. we are still looking, just give yourself time! go out and do things, save up and travel if you would like, and always be looking for passions. You will find one. It's normal to go through depression and loneliness through college, join a club! pledge to a sorority do whatever it is you want but you have to get up and do something. You will not find what you're looking for by staying where you are and doing absolutely nothing. I know it's tough especially if you are an introvert but there are always ways to look around. Look and you will find, even if what you find is super unexpected. Don't worry :) you'll be okay

yeah everyones been there. Humans are constantly changing at such a slow pace that one day you just wake up and say: I don't even know who I am anymore. My advice to you is that in order to change the things around you, you have to start changing the way you look at them. I say go on an adventure or do something that you normally don't do. If you don't know what you want in life, then maybe you haven't found anything that suits you. whether its a new hobby or a new person in your life, try something new and different. you might find that you like it, or you might find that you liked your old life better. Either way, you will be grateful. Good luck!
