You ever feel like you made a wrong turn somewhere, but now you've started on a career pathway, have a stupid fuck off hecs debt, can't afford therapy, and feel like it's too late to go back? That you're struggling with your job, don't have any real reference point as to whether it's normal, and just kinda wish you had another option?
Today was not a good day.
Two wrong turns at least.
True, I had to choose my degree at some point
Weโve all been there at various levels. Hang in there. ๐ช๐ป
I chose two wrong degrees.
Yes. Iโd completed most of my first uni course before realising what I really wanted to do.
No choice but to finish the course.
I started a BA because I didn't get into the course I wanted to and didn't know what else to do, then had a breakdown and didn't finish it anyway. Waste of time and I've never earned enough to pay it back :(
Iโve been in existential crisis for decades. So I reckon normal.
