My life fell apart last few months - my boyfriend died and I lost my job, I’m also feeling old at 27 and feel like I have no time. What should I do?

You need to take a breath and treat your self go take some time for just you and be with those close to you I promise you will get through it. I am sorta in the same boat as you I am struggling with work and my father has one foot in the grave and I have been taking care of him and now there are talks in my family about finding him home and from hearing those words It felt like I failed him. ,(So from one person who feeling just as depressed as you. Hang in there I promise you will feel better soon and don't be afraid to lean on your brother/sister if you have one)

It sounds like you’re battling severe depression. And considering what you listed, and all the things going wrong in the world as a whole, it’s understandable. But you can’t live in this state. It’s unhealthy and I doubt your late boyfriend would want you to. Talk to a therapist and take some time to grieve. I don’t suggest going on meds or using other substances to dull the pain. Lean on those closest to you and don’t be afraid to ask for help.

I am really sorry I think you need professional help. Believe me there is a LOT of people going through stuff right now. You’re not alone.

27 years old, that's young. Im 41, and changing job next year. You need to work on yourself. Become best version of yourself sleep right, eat right, exercise right. Pick up hobbies , join classes. I'm sorry that all this happened. But never to late to rise back up. Fight your inner demons.

Damn I’m sorry that sounds really rough.

My advice spend time with family, treat yourself to something, take time to relax and possibly seek professional help like a therapist so you can talk about it and work through it.

Go somewhere new. Get a new hairstyle. Make some sort of change.

Can I just give up? I don’t care about anything anymore.

[FilmGuy93]

Not if you want to move on lol

[BloodCursedDeviant]

You have to hang in there…. nothing much you can do really. Things may seem dark now but it will get better. I’m truly sorry for your loss. :(

[Asker]

I feel so behind in life now. I have to start all over. And I’m hearing that being 27 is very old and not young anymore.

[Shamalien]

If you want to talk you can message me. I’m very sorry to hear of your loss. I cannot imagine the pain

[OddBeMe]

I see your boyfriend meant a lot to you. But 27 ain’t old.

[Sevenpointfive]

no time for what?

[Asker]

To turn things around while I’m young.

[Sevenpointfive]

you said it yourself. you're still young. you have some time

What single thing concerns you the most?

[Asker]

I’m worried I don’t have a lot of time to turn things around. I was so amazing and successful and now I feel like a failure, for things out of of my control.

[Asker]

I wanted to be married by 30 and loved him so much.

[es20490446e]

It's the opposite, people usually don't reach because their pace is too much for them to sustain.

Easier, but consistent, is what works.

Where some people have challenging year goals, I have daily easy goals.

Guess my results.

I get your boyfriend's death is a very ugly thing to happen, the question is that cannot be controlled.

Just embrace it as at bad thing as it is, but realizing that life has much more to offer than that single event alone.

[Asker]

The other thing is because of these experiences I’ve also been growing and maturing. I don’t feel like I’m connecting with my friends anymore and their petty problems or talking about a girl whose extensions look bad, etc. I’m uncomfortable with all the shallowness and just want to be around better people but they also tend to be older than me.

[es20490446e]

Then just go to better places.

Do things that make you happy.
