I suffered from anxiety too in my 20s. Between 14 to 29 years were the worst years of my life (so far). Since then, life has been getting better.

Something that caused me a lot of suffering was a feeling that I was running out of time. I see that now, but back then I couldn't even describe this anxiety. I couldn't even realize the anxiety in me. It's like there was no life after 30. This made me make a lot of mistakes and waste a lot of time because I was obsessed with achieving results instead of focusing on the process.

I've been thinking a lot about 20 year old me lately. To the point that I'm even considering writing a book, a newsletter, or something.
