    You could also be autistic and have the same experience like me or even both

      Or you could just be comparing yourself to the unreasonably high standards set by archaic cultural norms.

      Basically if you’re a teenager and think you’re failing at life: No, you aren’t, just give yourself some more time to figure things out.

        Isn’t ‘failing at life’ the normal teenage feeling? It sucks, but it will pass.

        Exactly, just because your parents or grandparents were married and had good jobs at 18 and bought a house with cash at 20 while having their 3rd child. That’s not normal anymore. Do your best with what you have, and repeat to yourself “I’m not responsible for the economy. Things don’t work the same way they did 20 or 40 years ago.”
