Vent rant?

I think a lot of people have been going through this lately, including myself. I feel very detached and I think it has a lot to do with societal standards. It is very stressful as an adult because everyone wants you to have your life together. We are forced to detach from our childhood to pick up new "adult" things, but when you are a kid, those interests are much easier to pick up. As adults, we fear judgement, VS when you're a child, you are open to ANYTHING. Man, I used to sit and play with my LPS outside for HOURS and do the most oddball things LOL. But again, we are forced to let go of the things that used to make us happy which leaves us with... well nothing. As someone that doesn't dig new "trends" and other random modern things, I find it hard to connect with anything. I'm like "who even am I? What do I tell people when they ask my hobbies and what I do day to day?" I've found that I feel like a shell of a human because I am having a hard time with new standards and relating to others. Especially outside of the internet. I like a variety of "aesthetics" and what not as well, but I can't stick to just one like the rest of people our age can. I also noticed we are held to a much higher standard in terms of social media presence compared to before. So I suppose I may just be stuck in the early 2000's? I dunno. But I wanted to post this and let you know, you are NOT alone.

Omg I feel that so hard, I used to be like that for years when I was discovering myself as a person. However I hope you feel better about yourself soon!! It’s hard when you feel lost, but I promise everything will come together :D
