Idk what to even anymore
Im just scared. im 17, turning 18 next year. Feel like the whole world has put its weight on me :(. Fear of wars, military draft, fear of my whole life flipping upside down... and ontop of that, never had the peak "teenagehood"... that hangout with friends, get-togethers, going to each other's houses, none of that.
I just get the thought of it i take myself out on my own i wont have to deal with any of this
@inventiveNickel2095 The transition from childhood to adulthood can feel incredibly scary, especially when placed in a context of war and military drafting. I can see how the weight of such big issues can feel heavy to carry. Not having experienced the childhood you would have wanted and deserved to have is challenging, it is understandable to be upsetting and you have every right to grieve the things you have missed out on.

It's alright. Everyone has their own pace. No need to rush anything. Work towards what means to you the most and the rest will come along in the right time.

Hello there.
Congratulations on approaching adulthood.
I understand your concerns; they are real, and they are part of everyday life—both around you and across the world.
However, try not to dwell on them or let them turn into fear. Allow yourself to relax and freely explore the world in your own way. Focus on the things you enjoy and the simple, everyday moments around you. Gradually, as the years go by, you will mature and grow incredibly strong.
Wishing you happiness.
