And it sucks not to be happy if you know the goal you're reaching towards is something you don't really care about. I'm not good enough for graduate school. There, I said it. I cannot cope with it.

Anything worth doing promotes anxiety, at least in my world. If you don’t push through it then you end up doing nothing at all. Your life will continue to atrophy and shrink....
