Quarter Life Crisis.

(Image downloaded from medium.com)

Life looks uninteresting. There seems to be nothing new or exciting about the everyday routine. Future looks bleak. Change is no more welcome. Though we hate to do it, we still crib about the same things everyday and still do nothing about it. The only messages that you get on your phone are either spam or from your mother wanting to find out what you cooked for dinner/lunch. All living and non living things seem to be going against you and absolutely no help from any direction. You dislike being the adult and carrying around the extra responsible tag.

So it has arrived. A little early but it has made its presence felt.

• Firstly, there is a crisis. So I have at least acknowledged the fact there is a problem (which is a good sign!)
• Secondly, my current status exactly fits the definition

quarterlife crisis [ˈkwɔːtəˌlaɪf]

n

(Psychology) a crisis that may be experienced in one's twenties, involving anxiety over the direction and quality of one's life

So we have qualified the screening. Now what?

I next googled the term and the world wide web does have interesting things to offer :

-There is a movie.

-There is a website.

-There is a definition with illustrative examples.

-There is a wiki page (so somebody did create a wiki page for it as well!)

-And there are lotsa blogs on the same. So we are not the only ones and definitely have company :)

Quarter life crisis also involves being very moody and sailing from being happy to being frustrated in quick succession. Music and food can be consoling factors once in a while during such situations.
