i am at the worst part in life =/, help me out with your tales

[Opa-Opa]

17 was fine, mostly because all the things I had experienced up to that point and the anticipation of college.

21, however, was hell. I was diagnosed with cancer, had relationship problems, struggled with substance abuse and severe depression.

Believe me, it gets better. Just meditate on your life, how you want to make an impact, and you'll do fine.

 

Now I'm two months from a Master's degree, in a serious, healthy relationship, and fairly content.  

I can understand how easy it is to be depressed/cynical about how your life is unfolding.  But just try to remove yourself for a moment, reflect  on your position in life, and where you want to be.  Then obtain it.
