Hi Davos,

I just turned 21 myself and have been going through a similar issue.

I think the answer lies in remembering that you can still do what you love even if it's not as a career. In some cases, it's even better to do it for free, just for the love. Like with your music and art...once you plan on doing it as a career, you risk having to sacrifice your artistic integrity to pay the bills.

Maybe you should try to find an interest of yours that could lead to a solid career. This seems pretty possible for you, given your interests in linguistics, computer programming, physics and math...That way you could pay the bills with a job you like and make time in your personal life for the other interests you wish to pursue.

It caused me a lot of anxiety to think about as well, but right now I guess I'm okay with where I'm at.

I hope you find a solution that works out for you. If you wanna keep talking to me about this, feel free to PM me anytime.

Best of luck!
