i am 20 and ever since i was young i never saw a future for myself. and now im here and have no idea what to do.

im constantly thinking about the fact that i will never be a kid ever again, i will never be 14/16/18 ever again and those years just slipped right away from me. i was drowned in depression all of my early years i never was even able to experience a normal childhood or teenage life. i dont want depression to drown me my entire life and i dont want to look back on my 20s the same way i do my teens. am i the only one that feels this way?

@smittyy

This is normal.

We all feel it and sometimes wish we could go back.

But we can't.

And we waste time and energy trying to do this.

It's more beneficial to heal, and to find jot in the presence moment and to find what makes us happy.
