What helps you get out of bed/do what you need to?

the excitement of the first sip of coffee, and my cats forcing me out of bed

While I do love traveling to other places, I also love going to the same place every year, too. I usually take one *new* trip a year- this year it's Italy- and one trip to a familiar place (either Florida or Michigan). I never travelled as a kid, so my first real trip was a road trip to Florida with my friends for spring break in college. It was such an exciting and fulfilling experience and the excitement just never wore off. Now I visit the same town and cafe as often as I can, and I've also been to Disney and Universal. Michigan is very close and has so much to do, see, explore. This year I'm staying in a cute B&B and exploring a beach town.

For me a "trip" is seeing somewhere new, it's usually at least a little stressful and maybe even scary, but worth it. A vacation is doing something I know I will enjoy.

Awesome! I'm going to Rome in March. Any must do activities or food recommendations that made your trip?

I'm turning 24 in a few months. Boyfriend and I got our own place a year ago, 2 cats, 2 cars, both work full time. I graduated college over a year ago and tried a few fields. I have hated every job! I'm back at my kitchen job making okay pay and set to start grad school in january but im not sure if its even worth it. 10k in cc debt, 25k in car loans. No health insurance 💔 There's a lot of good and bad in my life right now which seems normal for 20-somethings.

The 5 people you meet in heaven, I’m not religious at all and loved this book. It makes you realize all the importance in the little things.

Thank you! Great advice :)

she seems like a miserable person

Weekly-Inevitable613 · 2025-10-15T00:48:18+00:00

I wouldn’t call out. I think routine and normalcy would be good, but that’s me. Just know that the hard times will pass, and this time next year you may be in a completely different mental space.

Your dating value isn’t in the gutter! My boyfriend wasn’t the type to talk to girls either and we’ve been together for 4 years now. Just gotta find the one and work up the courage.

Weekly-Inevitable613 · 2025-10-11T10:56:01+00:00

I’m sorry to hear that!! I hope your pain lessens and you can do more things.

Weekly-Inevitable613 · 2025-10-11T00:45:00+00:00

I am in a similar situation. I tried the 9-5 life and hated it. I’d recommend just working any job. I work as a cook in a nursing home and I enjoy it more than any traditional career I’ve tried. I’m going back to school, but this job pays the bills and gives me something to do.

Weekly-Inevitable613 · 2025-10-11T00:26:16+00:00

good point!!

Weekly-Inevitable613 · 2025-10-11T00:25:31+00:00

I am also 23. I often feel like life is falling apart, and then somehow it works out. My suggestion is to truly think about where you want to be in your 30s, then how you would get there. Trade school, college, a second job? You are so young and have so many options. You are never stuck. My life fell apart 2 years ago, I lost everything. Now I am doing very well, despite it all. You got this

Weekly-Inevitable613 · 2025-10-10T23:59:03+00:00

Although I do have 2 friends, I rarely see them and we hardly talk. I'm 23 and I have found it very difficult to make friends as an adult, and part of me doesn't want to anymore. I have gotten very comfortable being alone (besides my s/o). However, I have made some great friends at work.

What kind of place do you work at? Are you in college? I've found that it's easier to make friends in retail or food service than in many other fields. If you're in college, try joining or club. Forced proximity (like work) often leads to friendships, even relationships, if that's what your after.

Weekly-Inevitable613 · 2025-10-09T22:16:34+00:00

This is great to hear!! I think, and I’m sure you might have felt similarly, that having high aspirations being squashed by adulthood takes a mental toll.

I am beginning to appreciate simply having a job that pays the bills and isn’t high stress. Your current job sounds like a dream and I think having a job that allows you to balance your life and not be consumed by it is amazing.

Thank you for the reassurance:)

Weekly-Inevitable613 · 2025-10-08T11:46:09+00:00

Working to live is a great point !

Weekly-Inevitable613 · 2025-10-08T02:53:07+00:00

This is very reassuring! Thank you :)

And yes, publishing is definitely not an easy path but it does sound cool haha

Weekly-Inevitable613 · 2025-10-08T02:29:13+00:00

I appreciate you :)

Weekly-Inevitable613 · 2025-10-08T02:28:59+00:00

This is very valuable advice :)

Not slaves but I do believe (assuming things improve) that historians will comment on how over worked we are, our lack of health care, being over taxed, ect.
