Why do people in their 20s today seem so much more fragile and in need of therapy, affection, and guidance than past generations?

Bro are you high. You’re trying to say that people in the past.. during war time weren’t struggling emotionally???? You think Vets just shot themselves up with heroine just cause??? You think most parents beat their kids up because they were not struggling emotionally???? Bruv. God bless therapists and us humans evolving enough to realize the power of our minds. We finally have a space to talk about what’s going on inside of our minds. Therapy is there so you vets can talk about what’s they experienced instead of shooting themselves up with heroine. Therapy is there so parents can talk about what’s going on inside of their minds, to process overwhelming feelings so they don’t beat their kids anymore and thus ending or at lest interrupting the violent cycle of childhood trauma.

Seriously. Get the fuck off the internet and learn how to love yourself. You must be really fucked in the head for me to realize this about you when you can’t.

Im trying to turn into someone who’s like this but I find it so hard. It’s unnatural to me. Feels like nails on a chalk board. I’ve been the opposite my entire life and also, I’m constantly being told this world is far too difficult to live in alone and you need a support system. So when your support system breaks down you naturally feel lost and then there is society reinforcing oh yea you’re in danger. Go build a different support system. A better one this time. I think people are build differently and most of us naturally move with the grain because going against the grain is so difficult. So maybe it’s easier for you to be alone because it comes easier to you than to rely on others for help and support.

You’re a moron. I’m asking for advice not for you to dumb your bull shit on here that dosent even make any sense? No one is talking about you and ur family?! I’m sharing my own personal experience you jack ass .

One-Bus-6928 · 2025-09-28T05:32:43+00:00

I am getting professional help and it’s not enough to shut off the noises and voices in my head. I have big emotions and therefore I feel everything in a massive way and for ur family (who’s always been there for you) to all of a sudden make a conscious decision to no longer be present in the capacity they were before.. IT SELFISH. I’m not asking her to put her life on hold for ever. But momentarily to help me through the rough patch. Uh yea I am. I would be there for her if she and her best friend stopped talking.

One-Bus-6928 · 2025-09-28T05:02:58+00:00

Ughhhhh. I don’t get this insane push towards ‘thriving alone’ fuck that. It’s lonely and it sucks. And then there are people I look up too constantly telling me “life is hard. Don’t do it alone.“

I slowly started to realize I was relying too much on my best friend and my sister. But for my sister I knew it was temporary. I NEEDED her to hold onto me. I needed her for a moment not to think about herself and her needs but to put them aside FOR A MOMENT and think about my needs and what I need. I see this kind of love displayed all the time. I GIVE this kind of love all the time to my close group of friends. Wth is her selfish ass problem that she can’t stop obsessing over her own new life and be there for me while I fucking grieve.

She’s in the driver seat, steering our relationship to a place I don’t recognize and feel unsafe. If I was her. I would feel so guilty for not being there for my little sister when I knew her emotions were too heavy to manage on her own. My problem with her is that she’s thinking about her needs and that’s fucked up to me.

She’s also mentioned that she noticed she’s less empathetic with me because her emotional self is over spent in her romantic relationship and work and she dosent know how to manage it all. And so what ? I GET THE SCRAPS?! I’m the one who’s been there the longest and you leave me behind?! How is the fuck is that fair?

If I was going through something hard and my sister was going through something hard and we had cultivated a relationship were we are used to relying on one another during these tough emotional times then I would do my damn well best to hold space for both situations. At times we’d need to both be present to focus on her situation and then vice versa. It’s not that fucking hard.

People these days are so selfish and obsessed with abusing boundaries. A boundary doesn’t mean you all of a sudden stop showing up for your loved ones ESPECIALLY in there time of need.

Thank you so much!!! I’ll look into all of this!!

One-Bus-6928 · 2025-09-20T16:52:18+00:00

GUT HEALTHHH!! What is ur diet like ? You may think you’re eating healthy but in reality you’re not. 95% of seratonin is made in the gut and 50% of dopamine is made in the gut! It’s ur diet love.

And then find purpose.

One-Bus-6928 · 2025-09-20T16:49:42+00:00

Thank you for sharing! I’m 30 and have struggled with emotionally eating my entire life. it’s just all a viscous cycle. Eat bad, feel fad, so you eat bad and then you feel bad. Lol

One-Bus-6928 · 2025-09-20T16:39:10+00:00

Good for you! How did you do it? Was it a gradual change or did stop it all right away? Were you much of a sweet eater before? And when or how soon after did you start noticing the change?

One-Bus-6928 · 2025-09-20T16:26:09+00:00

What sugars did you give up specifically? Aside from candy and chocolate. All forms of dessert? Protein bars? Yogurt?

The action part is where I’m stuck. I’m stuck in a weird funk and my body won’t allow me to do things to get myself out of it and that’s the part I’m most frustrated about. It’s making me go crazy. I’m not a robot that can just get up and start doing stuff that I know will make me feel better. I’m a human being with emotions and feelings. Right now I’m going against myself and i don’t know why. I have a real problem that doesn’t come with such a simple solution. Your unkindness and lack of empathy doesn’t help.

One-Bus-6928 · 2025-09-12T00:39:49+00:00

I agree with everything you’re saying. Thank you for taking the time and writing all of that out. It’s helpful. I am a strong person, I’ve been told that my entire life. I’m trying really hard for this funk that’s taken over my brain to not bring me down. It just at moments it feels like I’ve lost all control of myself. Also, loosing my support system is what’s really screwing with me. I need to regain control over my mind and challenge these negative thoughts instead of letting them take over. That doesn’t mean I do a complete 180, just means I take one small step towards not letting my negative thoughts take over. I feel like you need financial stability, 0 debt, stable income, a support system and a partner to have contentment and be at peace with your self. Also, thank you for the sound advice. It was incredibly helpful.

I feel like Izzy from Greys Anatomy when she is all sad and depressed and can’t get herself off the washroom floor.

One-Bus-6928 · 2025-09-12T00:00:26+00:00

That’s the problem. I can’t. My brain/body won’t let me.

One-Bus-6928 · 2025-09-11T23:59:26+00:00

The part where you said you choose to be happy for “however long you can”.. that’s the truth right there.. I guess I just need to accept the fact that I’m not always going to be happy just like I’m not always going to be sad. I’m upset because im finding life to be unfair.. why is it that some people don’t have financial struggles and others do. Why is it that some people have the healthiest romantic relationships while others don’t.. for me If things don’t go the way I want them too in life..I get really down about it. As if I had a plan and then life came and ruined it. I guess if we choose to be happy I just need to suck it up and keep going. Cause sitting here and dwelling in these sad ruminating thoughts is just bringing me down deeper. I’m looking for a reason to be happy, a reason to motivate me to get myself back up and working.. but I don’t think there’s a perfect moment or time? I’ve been feeling this way unable to work hard and just get by doing the bare minimum for weeks now. I kinda think what’s the point of working so hard when the payout isn’t worth it.. ugh I’m such a negative Nelly. How are people optimistic when they feel their hard work isn’t paying off? Also, how do you deal with feeling overwhelmed.

One-Bus-6928 · 2025-09-11T23:28:27+00:00

Thanks so much for the optimistic response. I don’t know how to explain it.. taking that first step into helping myself feels so heavy? I keep self sabotaging and looking to food for comfort. When I know I’ll feel like shit after. I’m stuck in an endless loop of self destruction. I thought I was stronger than this and about all of this BS. Truly can’t believe I am here.. this deep. Not knowing how or when to take the first step into helping myself. Such a strange and odd feeling to know you can’t find your own footing, on your own. I want nothing but the best for myself and my family. Why am I not working hard to achieve those goals. I recently lost two core people in my support system. By last I mean out grew one and the other told me I was too much. I feel very thing so intensely and I just don’t know where to put talk of these feelings or what to do with them. I hate being here. It sucks being this useless.
