has anyone felt like once they turned 19-20 everything changed drastically mentally. I used to be so care free at 16-18 but half way through being 19 I started becoming anxious and worried all the time. I thought it’d go away but now I’m turning 21, and it’s only gotten worse. I’m just constantly on edge about everything. Just reaching out to see if anyone else has ever felt this way.


Thanks for reading

@primbit Hi there and welcome to 7 Cups! You have landed in the right place! I can remember when I was younger thinking about people that were 20 as being ancient and that the age was so far away. Now when I look back on my twenties I can see that actually they were some of the best years of my life and I would hope they will be some of your best too. That little bit older can make us see things differently. The milestone of 21 is also something that the world seems to give extra power to, and responsibility!

I would suggest thinking about things from a different perspective. Now you are more responsible for what you want to do and you can make your own choices. These might include things like relaxation techniques. Something simple like listening to music that is calming or taking a walk. There are a lot of opportunities here at 7 Cups to do this, maybe have a look at some of these here.
