[Goals2017]

Who else is just feeling lost in life? I'm only 24 and I can't seem to get a vision on life. I think I'm realizing that my BP diagnoses my not be effecting me as much as I think it is, and maybe it's just me.... Idk. How can I tell if it's the BP or just me getting in my own way?

I think it's important to have a routine and both short term and long term goals, it gives you something to look forward to.

My short term goals are to continue showing up to my shifts, exercising regularly and trying to read more often. My long term goal is to go back to college in about a year and a half to finish my degree.

Perhaps compiling a list of short term and long term goals that interest you, as well as keeping a daily routine, would help you feel less lost in life.

I especially agree about routine. I think that most of us (B.P.s) do better when we have a routine. It gives us a level of discipline when we are lost. It gives us focus when we are meandering
Just my 2 cents

That's a good idea I have been exercising regularly I really want to lose weight and build a solid body. Long term is a bit foggy but eventually go to grad school and find a good job that's meaningful

I am 42 and have been feeling like you since grade 8. They told me it is puberty. Then it was my inability to cope with stress. Just a phase. It will pass, they told me. Guess what? It doesn't!! I've lost all sense of reality. People tell me I forget things they've told me. I am losing my mind. And I hate it when people tell me to snap out of it. Get out. Get a job. Get exercise... I don't want to. Just leave me alone! What is the point?

I think scaredandconfused has excellent advice that I'm going to follow myself. Best wishes.
