hi. just a bit of background to start. im a 25f and i think i am pretty successful. i am a college grad with a master’s and i paid off all of my student loans. i have the career that i have always aspired to have. i am respected at work and i make decent money. i own a car and a home. i am engaged to an awesome person and will be getting married in a few months. i come from a big family. my parents and siblings are all wonderful. everyone lives locally and i see them pretty often. despite all of this i am having the hardest time accepting that im not a kid anymore. i have so much to be grateful for (and i truly am) but i feel like i am constantly mourning my old, more carefree life. then when i get upset it often turns to anger at myself because it feels pathetic. how can i be sad when i worked hard for everything and it has gone exactly as planned? i am right where i wanted to be but for some reason i am stuck in the past, having trouble enjoying the now, and not nearly as motivated by the future as i once was. i am looking for a book that could get me out of this rut and help me transition to the next chapter of life with much more positivity. any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.
thank you so much for your time.
