Quarter Life Crisis

Quarter Life Crisis anyone?
It actually exist!!

I was chillin at home with hanis when we were gossiping bout our current life dramas ;) Then she said that it's actually quarter life crisis we're having. She googled it last nite and there it was on wikipedia (our source of all knowledge..haha). I googled it too!! And to my horror, I have diagnosed myself as having Quarter Life Crisis. I know...it is dodgy to be excusing myself this way but in this new era of physical, mental and emotional wellbeing enlightened society we live in, it is excusable :)

Anyways, here's a list of characteristics of this crisis:

• realizing that the pursuits of one's peers are useless
• confronting their own mortality
• watching time slowly take its toll on their parents, only to realize they are next
• insecurity regarding the fact that their actions are meaningless
• insecurity concerning ability to love themselves, let alone another person
• insecurity regarding present accomplishments
• re-evaluation of close interpersonal relationships
• lack of friendships or romantic relationships, sexual frustration, and involuntary celibacy
• disappointment with one's job
• nostalgia for university, college, high school or elementary school life
• tendency to hold stronger opinions
• boredom with social interactions
• loss of closeness to high school and college friends
• financially-rooted stress (overwhelming college loans, unanticipatedly high cost of living, etc.)
• loneliness, depression and suicide
• desire to have children
• a sense that everyone is, somehow, doing better than you
• frustration with social skills

Now whadya know....ticks all my boxes!!! Apparently this largey applies to the Generation Y kids, US! This crisis happens when we are transitioning into the young adult life where we are faced with "the real world". Careers, love, friendships, families, finances all snowballed into a huge question mark to where this is all heading.....


Oh....help me doctor, I'm sick ;)
