Hello, I'm a girl of 21. For two years now, something has changed in me as a person. Starting with the family, through relationships and all the way to career and study. I am generally frustrated with life, crying almost every night, depressed, and closed in on myself. I have two or three friends with whom I hear from time to time, but we are from different cities and do not see each other often. I don't go out much except when I'm with my boyfriend. I fight with my family, I'm afraid of a serious commitment so that I don't get hurt and I don't seem to fit in with people. I am horrified about what awaits me in the future, the fact that I have to take care of myself, I am horrified by the fact that I cannot adapt to the rest, I cannot talk freely. I do not feel comfortable in my skin and on the spot. I'm afraid of failure. I'm about to graduate next year and I don't know how I'm going to do my thesis at all because I have no idea what's going on. I'm embarrassed to talk to people and that stops me from doing some homework at university. When I think of sharing with someone, I have the feeling that I will complain and annoy a person, so I am silent most of the time. I can't stand it, I want a change, but I don't know how to get my old self back. Some things happened to me, I don't know if they have anything to do with the situation at the moment (my ex-boyfriend died, and I don't get along with ours - they forbid me everything and behave like eagle parents, which stops me from following my goals, going out and to be normal). Please, if anyone has experienced something like this, let them share their experience. Lately I've been thinking more and more about a fatal end ... And I'm super demotivated by everything.

As you pass through Hell, keep walking. Things will change. This is inevitable. They will change many times in your life. Sometimes it will get better, sometimes it will get worse. But you will still be happy, you will have good moments and good things will happen in your life. The fears you have - you have to face them. From experience I can tell you that otherwise you become their slave. And the feeling of victory over yourself is wonderful. However, find a trusted person with whom you can share. The fact is, shared pain is half the pain. And sometimes, as you talk out loud about what's bothering you, you realize its absurdity and even find it funny. It also helps to see that someone else is experiencing the same thing. Or that everyone has problems, is depressed, afraid. Do not despair and definitely do not give up your dreams out of fear. I want to tell you, that I am very worried about speaking in front of people. I have twice defended my dissertation in front of many people. Was I worried? Yes. Did I feel sick? Definitely. Did I do it? Probably not very well, but both times I was evaluated with 6. I finished what was in my heart, now I am working on it and it has been satisfying me for 6 years. Life is often difficult, nasty and unpleasant. Don't give in to him. ;) Another time is wonderful.
