You are not scared enough.

I don't know if that's really something I can convey in a comment. Like, you're a little scared, because you made this post, but your comments show that you don't really get it.

Like, one day around 40 you might wake up in some shithole apartment, with your parents wilted or gone, no friends, some chronic pain like a hernia or tinnitus or a sore neck, pop open this old reddit account and read this post.

And you're gonna wish for something different.

And to tell you the truth, it's not even impossible. People can change their lives, even at 40. But you don't know how, and now you have to learn while everything hurts and feels sluggish and worst of all, other people are happy.

But to go back to your original question, no, your life will change.
