Gone are the days when age crisis was limited to puberty, menopause, mid-40s and other prominent stages in a person's life when the body undergoes hormonal changes. Nowadays, we also have mid-20s crisis with emotional and psychological changes happening.
This is the threshold between the growing man and the grown man. With growing competition and tough-to-make place in market, when academic life ends and professional life begins and we enter the real mean world, a zillion thoughts cross our mind and we undergo multiple mood swings, depression like state and frustration. You think:
* About a third of my life is over and I have not really done anything with it. Spent a part of it growing up, some of it trying to figure out what to do and some running around trying to make it work.
* Of traveling the world like there's no tomorrow.
* You are going bald.
* Stuck in your job.
* You have suddenly all grown up with the responsibilities.
* All of your friends are getting married and you will get married too soon having your own family.
* You have attained the ultimate knowledge and should go to mountains to meditate now.
* After a failed love affair, the concept of love is faltering and is for college students.
* You have made a wrong career choice and feel aimless out of nowhere.
* Binging is your savior.
* You are worthless.
* You should get back to childhood and do things you've missed
* Partying with your friends is the only escape.
* Your skin has lost its glow and charm so you start using all sorts of products and often consult your dermatologist.
Instead of brooding over what's done and what can't be changed. enjoy the moment and make the most of your mid 20s because just like you get one childhood, this is your time to feel grown up while feeling all too young! Lay back and relax!! ;)
