Quarter life crisis?

I’m about to be 21, and I’ve never felt this hopeless.

I feel like I don’t have a grasp on my life. I feel like society is poison. I’m struggling worse than ever with mental health.

I literally want to run away to the corner of the world and live self sufficiently. I want to know everything I need to know to only need myself.

This song always helps me when I get angsty about my existence. There's some lines in there that really resonate with you once you realize you don't have to meet the expectations of a society that doesn't care about you. You're free to do whatever you want with your time.

At peace in the worst of times
I'm dedicated to the moment
I crossed out the world
That only tries to feed on the hate inside
Preying on all that you fear
Not satisfied until you're tamed

Let the universe deal with commotion
It's everything we'll never know
Just another wave in the ocean
Takes you where you need to go
And if you understand that you're defenseless
You just might let it go
Geronimo

It's just a bag of bones
But it's everything I need
I'm ready to go
Forward strides are leaving it all behind
Finally starting to heal
No longer need to numb the pain

Forget about what you think is hopeless
Remember there's more room to grow
Outside the walls that have you surrounded
And always wanting more
But the less you got the more it seems worth it
It's not impossible, just logical

Reversing gravity
Making your way to heights you've never seen before
Gratified
There's no need to comprehend this
Force you're feeling
Seeing the world and all her beauty with new eyes
Gratified
I see clearly for the first time in my life

Every season spent in solitude
(Spent in solitude)
With poison pumping through my heart and my veins
(Through my heart and my veins)
Lost my footing
I was walking a tightrope
(Walking a tightrope)
Seeking balance but it never came
I believe I found my way
Know this time I've found my way

Reversing gravity
Making your way to heights you've never seen before
Gratified
There's no need to comprehend this
Force you're feeling
Seeing the world and all her beauty with new eyes
Gratified
I see clearly for the first time in my
Clearly for the first time in my
Clearly for the first time in my life
