I turned 18 yesterday. I turned 21 this morning. I checked my watch just a minute ago and it said 23. But now I'm almost 25 and that I can't believe it.
Sure, that's hyperbole, but 7 years has seriously felt like no time at all. I can remember a lot about my first job that I quite a bit after turning 18. I can easily remember turning 18 shortly before the 2016 election and being glad to be able to vote.
Sometime around 20, everything sped up. I let my anxiety get the better of me. I didn't even hook up since then until this year. I moved from bad job, to still bad jobs. I watched YouTube every night and pretended to care about what I saw.
But the thing is, I still do these things. I still haven't taken a vacation, or met a bunch of cool people, or had a serious relationship. I haven't started investing for retirement.
I suffer from depression. Every day it gets a little bit worse. If I keep living for nothing, and a turn 30, thinking being 18 was last week, who knows what I'll do.

If you don't already have medicine for your depression please see a doctor to get some. You can do a course to get yourself into a different line of work which could be better than where you are. You can find other things to do than watching YouTube like sewing, knitting, or reading.
