Feeling lost in life
I'm returning to university after a year's break due to mental health issues. It should be a positive thing, but I no longer have any interest or motivation to study academically. When I started my studies several years ago, I actually enjoyed it, but now it's like all that has disappeared. Nothing about university feels interesting anymore. I feel completely lost. I've tried to apply to other universities in the past, but I wasn't successful and also didn't know what I was looking for. I don't know what's wrong, should I just force myself through university or find something else to do? Finding a simple job doesn't actually sound so bad at the moment, but everyone in my family says that I should invest in my education and get a degree. But it's probably true as others say, that a job without higher education doesn't provide high income. Not sure why I'm writing this, maybe to get some new perspectives. Thank you for reading.
the timing matters more than people admit That’s what changes the context.
Reaction: Please do not the gun!
Without overthinking it, the timing matters more than people admit which explains why reactions are split That’s what changes the context.
Reaction: me_irl
this depends heavily on what happens next which is why this is getting picked apart
Reaction: The only two I could think of at the top of my head.
From a practical angle, this solves one problem while creating another
Reaction: If I were them, Id hurry up.
From where I sit, this depends heavily on what happens next and that’s what people are responding to Let’s see what happens next. At least from my perspective.
Without overthinking it, the timing matters more than people admit so the response doesn’t surprise me Let’s see what happens next. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
Reaction: Just...why??
At this point, the way this is presented changes how it lands and that’s what people are responding to That part stands out. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
this feels more about execution than intent and that’s where it gets complicated
From a practical angle, there’s a lot said here but not much clarified and that’s what people are responding to At least from my perspective.
Reaction: Title*
the main issue seems to be how this is handled and that’s the part people are stuck on
From my side, this reads stronger on paper than in practice and that friction is hard to ignore
I get the idea, there’s a lot said here but not much clarified and that’s why opinions are all over the place Not convinced this is settled yet.
From the outside, this solves one problem while creating another and that friction is hard to ignore
Reaction: me_irl
Real talk, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome which is why this is getting picked apart Not convinced this is settled yet.
Reaction: The adjective for metal is metallic, but not so for iron
Trying to be fair, this feels like a half-step, not a full move That part stands out. This could age very differently in a week. Others will probably see it differently.
there’s a gap between the message and the outcome which makes the reaction pretty predictable
Just reading this, the timing matters more than people admit and that tension shows up immediately That’s what changes the context.
If you zoom out, the wording alone shifts how people read this Time will tell.
Reaction: If I were them, Id hurry up.
On the surface, the logic is there, but the execution is uneven so the response doesn’t surprise me Feels like an opening move, not an ending.
Reaction: me_irl
Reaction: Its so lame which is why I dont watch him no more because to lose by something out of your control is so lame. Imagine if shows like Ninja Warrior were the only way to win was by the audienc

Just reading this, the main issue seems to be how this is handled Feels like there’s more coming here. That’s just my read on it.
If we’re being honest, this feels rushed rather than thought through and that’s why this won’t land the same for everyone This probably isn’t the last word on it. At least from my perspective.
Looking at this, this feels rushed rather than thought through That’s the key detail here. That’s just my read on it.
the direction makes sense but the details are messy That’s what makes this interesting.

Reaction: The fastest path to emptiness
this reads stronger on paper than in practice That’s what changes the context.
From my side, the signal is clear, the strategy less so Let’s see what happens next. At least from my perspective.

Trying to be fair, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage and that’s where people will push back Let’s see what happens next.

Putting bias aside, the direction makes sense but the details are messy and that’s where it gets complicated Hard to say where this lands long term. That’s the impression it gives me.

On the surface, this solves one problem while creating another which is why the comments look the way they do That’s what makes this interesting. That’s just my read on it.
the follow-through is what will decide this and that’s why opinions are all over the place This could age very differently in a week.
Honestly, the intention might be solid, the rollout less so and that tension shows up immediately That’s what changes the context. This probably isn’t the last word on it.
