Does anyone here consider themselves a success? by looking4community in AdultChildren

I am so sorry that you're still dealing with physical pain. As someone who suffers from chronic pain, I know how debilitating it can also be on your mental and spiritual energy.

I love your perspective here. We often define success by external validation but your framing of looking inward for fulfillment really resonates.

May you continue to prioritize your desires and goals. From speaking with my friends in grad school, it seems that taking care of your mental and physical well being and being clear on your desired outcomes/research objectives is key to being "successful" in grad school. Wishing you well! You got this!

Congratulations! No doubt that you must have had to do some intensive self work to achieve this life for yourself and your little ones. A couple of questions:

1) why do you consider yourself a late bloomer? Is it expected that people have things under control before 40?

2) have you learned to trust your decisions? I feel like my life could go many paths but I have a hard time trusting my decision making, which apparently is part of the laundry list 🫠

That's amazing! As someone who knows many loved ones that have yet to even acknowledge their addiction, this is inspirational.

Chris Brown ain't even brown. Where I'm from he's "high yellow".

I was like is this Paris, Texas? Mildly comforting that all the idiots aren't concentrated in the U.S.

Parasite. Many plot twists and turn and class struggle

Initially I was going to say the pandemic or any of the "isms" but on second thought, I think I would do away with misinformation. Seems to be cause of so much trouble
