What will happen to me?

I don’t if I’m the only one, I don’t think I am the only one but I can’t help but be anxious about my future. I am a university student and in two years I’ll be graduating and I still haven’t figured out what I would do after that. I don’t know what job I’ll have or if I would ever have one. I always worry and overthink so much that I’ll fail and I will never achieve the things I want and have dreamt of since forever. Is this just paranoia? I’m just really scared of not being able to be the person I’ve been wanting to be. The uncertainty of the future also contributes to that.

Same with me! I also will be graduating after 2 years and still confused about my future. May I know what lesson you learned on campus? Maybe we can work together someday

@fahmita_ Yes, I am. Ever since I’ve watched the devil wears prada, my interest in fashion increased so much. I wish you luck in your plans. I hope you’ll be successful.

@seserica Well, that's good. I am a fashion design student but I also a freelancer. I planning to make my own business about fashion, but I'm not sure I can build my own business. So I hope to work with someone, even very grateful to meet people from abroad to add relations. Are you interested in fashion business?

This is normal among university students. I felt that same way when I was in the same position many years ago, Afraid of what the future held for me after graduation. Worried about finding a job and a place to live. But all that worry was for nothing. As I got closer to graduation, many different opportunities landed in my lap. It gave me hope and excitement as I started my new journey into adulthood. Don't worry Princess, you'll be just fine!

I think you are feeling quite normal things. Just try to take one semester at a time, with the belief that every step takes you closer to good things that await you.

Yeah, I will. I should start thinking that it’s better if I take thing slow and not pressure myself.

I'm sure there are others that feel the same way. What would you like to do? What do you enjoy doing?

i think that was a normal situation at your age. coz i have that feeling too. i have a big doubt with my skill on architecture. this my 2 years. but i think i'm still newbie and amateur. but now i know. i just need relax and calm down. keep learning or find something new. for me. i try make visual art since 1 years a go and i have finish some job with that. now make visual art is my side job and still learning to be a good architec. all you need is relax and let it be.think about let it be, try listen the beatles song. "let it be" every time i hear that i feel relax and calm

Thank you for the recommendation again, I’ll be sure to listen to it. I’m happy that you’re slowly figuring things out. I hope it’ll end up well for the both of us after we graduate.

Hello there kabayan! The situation now makes us all think of what the future will bring us. I understand that, you are not alone in this. We just need to think positive and believe there will be a good future for all of us, free from sickness and worry.
