#so they will hear of it bc force inshallah

Im one of those people who likes to hear that theyre not alone when im going thru something (although i also appreciate & seek out actual practical advice too) but the thing that bothers me most about my life feels v unique to me. Im almost 25 and i still live w my parents which by itself is not a bad thing. what sucks is that both my parents are extremely neurotic and have really unrealistic/exaggerated fears about the world that limit the things i do, even how late i can stay out. it’s extremely humiliating and frustrating that im basically pushing 30 and still have to answer to my parents about things like this. I know that i have 2 options that would force me to leave: a) grad school or b) good job. grad school is tough bc, even though it’s been 2 entire yrs since graduating, i still dont know what i want to do w my life so idk what id even go to grad school for. and if i do go to grad school it makes more financial sense to stay in state so id still have to live at home. a job would be great but i still have such little working experience and like no marketable skills that would earn me a position that would pay enough/have me relocate. so im kinda fucked in the ass. All i can do is pray even though my faith is feeble at best but inshallah ill find a way out

#my parents are good people theyre not abusive or anything #but living w them is not conducive to being an actual functioning adult
