This is my viewpoint on reality. I am almost twenty, but I feel like a fifteen year old child who knows nothing about the world. My head is only filled with fantasies and dreaming about the what-if's, never really doing anything in real life. I crave self confidence, but never gets it- always afraid to show my true self in unfamiliar situations.
I have all these thoughts in my head, but I don't know who to go to, to talk to, to lean on. I would go to my parents, but I don't feel like they understand me very well, or at least they say things in a way that doesn't get through to me. I'm also worried about the person I will become in the future, like career-wise or socially, but I can't tell my parents that because they'll just worry more without giving any useful advice (or again say things that won't get through to me).
I want answers to these worries, but who do I even ask? I want advice on my life's obstacles, but who knows me well enough to advise me? No one comes to my mind, and that's what makes life so hard.

I am 24 and I am just the same as you mentioned. I also wonder about what-ifs, I am worried about career, lack self-confidence, etc. etc. But worrying and stressing never helps. What you can do is improvise yourself. Figure out the problems, note them. If you can do this, you are already half way there. Take one step at a time. Socialize more. Share your problems but do not expect for solutions from other. Figure out you likes/dislikes, your wants and needs then make decisions and choose your path accordingly. Remember one step at a time. Your solution is within you. Take your time. Good luck!
