I'm 29 And I Feel So Behind In Life (Emotional..Sorry)

This isn't something I ever thought I'd share with anyone. I wanted to be as genuine about who I am and what I'm going through. I'm not this happy and energetic person all the time. I struggle and go through a lot of things internally as well that I'm so used to suppressing. I'm working on myself and trying to be better. I hope this helps you guys understand who I am a little bit more.

Hey everyone! I read all your comments and I just want to say how each one of you made me feel better about posting this. I was embarrassed and worried what people may think for uploading this. I’m surprised at how many of you can relate to me. Thank you for supporting me and being here for me. It means so much to me especially during this hard time.

Flo, life has no timeline, it has no set dates or age when you have to achieve specific things. Just work on yourself, and do what makes YOU happy. Learn to love yourself again, and everything else will fall into place. Im turning 39 soon, single, never married, no kids, dont own property, recovering heroin addict (6 years clean), life is hard and always will be, you need to find your happiness.

[JBonilla]

Listen flo, when it comes to life no one in this world knows where they're truly going. It's like the times where there was no GPS or map quest or anything. You just gotta pick a direction and start driving. I'm right there with you in being lost, but I have a general direction I wanna go and I know you do too.

[KatieAJ]

I'm 29 and I feel the same way. 2 breakups in one year, University dropout, in college getting ANOTHER degree...girl...we're in the same boat. You posting this video made me realize I'm not the only one going through this. Maybe WE'RE not the only ones going through this.

[viscaelfutbol]

I feel you Flo, 27 turning 28 next year and I’m still In the same boat. I’m lost and going to therapy, I’m hoping the best come out from it and also spiritually for me. Im at the bottom of the totem pole and it sucks

[LoganH]

I relate with where you’re coming from, Flo. I just turned 26 the other day, and because of how introverted I am I’ve never even been in a real relationship. I’m happy with where my career is, but it doesn’t make me hate myself any less. For the past several months I just keep asking myself “what’s the point? I go to work then go home to be alone.” It’s not fulfilling, but I’m also so insecure that I’m scared of trying to date before I lose weight. Really hoping to start feeling more confident sooner rather than later, because I’ve really started getting lonely in the last year. I’m wishing you the best with your struggles as well. We’re all on our own respective journeys, so you’re not alone in your feelings!

I've been lurking for some time, and I feel compelled to comment on this now. Firstly, don't apologize for being human and working through something. You should not be embarrassed or ashamed of showing your pain. This pain belongs to no one else, and you've already proven it has taken so much courage to face it. The fact that you're still active with your community is staggering to me considering what you're going through.

This is your channel, and your personality that this community is glued together by. That's no small feat! I know I'm just a pixel stranger on the internet, but your struggles hit me very hard. They are incredibly relatable. That stuff about the therapist, having to wait... being torn down... I can't offer you any solutions for these things. I can only say that it will get better, but not immediately. Being OKAY with yourself, and being UNDERSTANDING and COMPASSIONATE towards your own failings is the hardest thing to learn. I can see you're a very driven individual, and I have no doubt that so long as you continue to express yourself and doing your best to engage with self-improvement AND self-care, you'll get there Floskeee.

Growing up, we were all told that it would be easy. That "This is what you do to be successful" and "These are the aspects of a successful life". You should know they lied to us Floskeee, perhaps not intentionally, but... the world as it is now makes that dream extremely difficult. They tried to make it sound like that's just what everyone does, but it's not true. If you were truly not good enough, there's no way you'd be able to bring smiles to so many people's faces. Meeting you in Apex is very likely an experience most would not soon forget. Take pride in that, and know that you are more than good. You're grate 🧀

[FBFII]

It can be really hard when your life doesn't go to plan, especially when you're already feeling disillusioned in your 20's, having a life plan only for it change isn't easy and as someone currently working through the same issue I completely emphasize with you. I know you'll get through! I'm rooting for you!

[dwayneadamsii]

I love you flo.... you're feelings are completely understandable, and personally relatable. Just got the discord notification, nothing to regret. Thank you for always being so real with us.

[MrHavoc]

I'm also 29 and in a similar boat and watching this video realized I'm not the only one going through this and neither are you Floskee. There are days i just wanna give up but i have deep down i know things will get better and im not giving up. You GOT THIS!!! I believe in you

[Renegade]

I did that time line, I was married at 21, first and only kid at 25. now im 37 and single, have been starting over for the past year. I can tell you its great you are seeing a therapist and oh boy cut yourself some slack. its always going to be life and the easy and hard part is how well you handle situations that come up. control your reactions and always do things in a way that works towards the better you. the results or the happiness, anything you want to feel doesn't come without something being done. the relationship, the sense of purpose, all that is something you will have to consistently work toward. little steps everyday will be big, huge leaps in a year, you will wake up 6 months from now stronger and ready to face anything. ALWAYS love yourself and dont be afraid to cut ties with people or things once you realize its not working. be free Floskeee and love yourself. <3

[Stealthymist]

I think most people don’t know where they are going. Im 30 and I always have moments of being depressed and wondering what I have been doing in my life. And trust me having a career isn’t all that’s it’s cracked up to be, long ass hours waking up in freezing mornings to deal with issues all the live long day. Just keep your head up and keep making us all laugh, I think that’s worth more than a career :)

[JonathanRavishankar]

Tbh im only 20 and thats where I see myself in 10 years. Shits depressing. I feel like a lot of us needed your honesty so thanks for that. We gotchu queen!!

[Eaglebone]

You're smart, attractive, and funny. Without a doubt this community wants to see you succeed and are excited to see you put your feet where you need to go.

[Crazyfomo]

I'm 32 and in a similar boat. I've been more and more depressed lately. I think the honest truth is no one really knows what their doing in life. That helps me atleast feel a little less shitty. You aren't alone in the way you feel. Lots of people feel the same, like myself. If you feel like you need someone else to talk to feel free to reach out.

[A.M.Lhistorica]

I feel exact the same right now I’m 26 and feel like I’ve done nothing in my life compared to people I know my age, I can’t open up to anyone new weather that’s friends or romantically, because it always ends up with me getting hurt in some way things never seem to work out for me no matter how hard I work and try, don’t see much point in struggling through life anymore

[omgpaulyd]

It is okay to fail over and over again but it is not okay to lose hope or lose yourself in the process. The sun will shine upon you at the exact moment it needs to be. We love you Flo! ❤️

[robertdeener]

I have everything you mentioned but I STILL have this feeling of being "behind". Hang in there! It will get better!

[ivypoison]

Flo, don't worry about where you are in life. No single persons timeline is the same. I am 26 years old, perpetually single, and I sit at home with my dog and my grandpap. You are doing amazing things and you are an amazing person. I wish I could be like you. You inspire me so much. You deserve to be happy and enjoy life. And you are taking the right steps with your therapist. But make sure you go at your own pace. Don't ever apologize for feeling the way you do. You'll get through this, and you took the biggest step already! You are amazing.

[CheeksMcLappin]

you'll find the perfect person for you, its great to work on yourself and try to be better but at the same time there will be someone who has all the patients and love for you that you need to thrive!
Hang in there, I'm 33 and still dating and it does feel hopeless at times but things will work out im sure :3
