I'm 41 years old and because of my own dumb choices I'm back living with my parents and we don't have the best relationship and it is not a very positive environment. I find myself falling deeper into depression daily because of it I'm extremely embarrassed. Looking for opinions, suggestions. I know I have to stay motivated and not allow myself to become comfortable on that
Dont be hard on yourself. Everyone makes mistakes! I suffer from severe anxiety and depression also. Just make a goal to save so you can get your own place as soon as possible and try to stay positive.
Thank you for the kind words!
I’m 36 and living with my parents as well!! You are in good company as many adults are living with their parents these days. This article speaks to some of the positives of living with family (saving money definitely being one of them)! Hope this helps you look on the bright side during this challenging time https://www.google.com/amp/s/qz.com/1894046/the-economic-and-social-benefits-of-living-with-your-parents-as-an-adult/amp/
What has helped me the most in my life it going on YouTube. There you can find many positive meditations and inspiration speakers. Reading inspiring books and learning how to cope with all sorts of situations. There are many ways that you can learn to help your self. It's a process that never ends. Keep growing and learning.
Hello. I’m sorry to hear you are struggling, I’m almost 39 and don’t have my life exactly where I imagined at this time. However I am happier now than when I had what looked like the all American dream. I recommend that you start listening to self help motivational speakers , find new hobbies maybe turn them into side hustles. Work on so much positivity that it’s hard to be negative or let it affect you.
I live with my mother as well. It We seem to fight all the time and I'm trying very hard not to begin hating her but she's constantly putting me down and telling me what I'm not doing good enough and I just don't think I can handle much more of it.
New hear and I'm very passionate about this topic
I just had a long feed back and it deleted. It keeps deleting my stuff even the short one I tried to post b4 thisb1.
I also suffer with anxiety and Major depression have all my life.
I'm 29, and I've been dealing with anxiety for almost 4 years now, it's difficult to explain why you are feeling like that or ask for help. I started working on my self by reading a lot, writing my problems on my journal and finding solutions, organizing my life and creating goals. The first thing that helped me was to understand my personal finances, that's why I'm here. Second, not letting other's people negativity affects me (the most difficult part plus my own negativity), discover the things that I enjoy by myself, things that I love, and I have not been able to do. And most valuable, enjoy the process, I used to be like "I want success for yesterday, I want to be perfect, I don't want to feel sad, I don't want to cry". There were times when I wasn't able to speak even with my friends because I was dealing with depression and frustration. It's ok not to be ok all the time, the thing is not let the situation drive your life. And also, I suggest you to listen, Jim Rohn, a great motivational speaker, who is my mentor when I'm feeling down.
