Search Results: career crisis

So my friend is 35 and saying she doesn't know what she wants to be. She's been taking on jobs that aren't long term, have no health care benefits, no room for advancement, nor any perks. She hangs around really young immature girls who aren't going places (as in no plans beyond today). Seems like she's having a crisis maybe. Then she complains about not getting a good guy but she gives every man in our apartment complex her number. These men never want anything serious, use her or already have someone then she gets mad. i feel like I'm always talking to her about my goals or career plans for the future but she never has anything going. Should I address it or let her be? She just seems lost and at her age most people have steady income and a career going.

I had a wonderful job, life was fantastic. Then work shut down, money didn't come in, I have to be a teacher for my kids, and cook differently and keep myself taken care of somehow too.. I didn't sleep til 5am every night because I could not comprehend why I needed to go to sleep. I ate more than usual, high carb and starches; assuming for comfort and a distraction. Couple of months go by and things are opening. My job tells me there's no job for me to return to. Another month goes by while I drift off and ignore stuff so I can gain some clarification and closure. The world is fighting and people are frustrated.. Then I decide to use some money in a risky way. I pay for some tickets & courses that are not school related but will guarantee me a pension and get my life back on track. Resorted to social media for human connections, as I'm watching innocent people be filled with brainwashing information. So, I turn it off and get outside to nature and the ocean because there's so much clarity when Im there. I went every day possible that I could find within myself. Hoping that if I created a phantom routine, that'd I'd wake up and get sh*t done. Life goes back on, with lots of society-culture curves. I'm exhausted and impacted by the last while, it's clouded my inner self. ***Please keep this post uplifting and forward focused in a positive outlook***
