Feeling overwhelmed, a little lost in life and looking for advice or insight

3 hours ago 3

I (30F) have been feeling easily overwhelmed and anxious about my life lately (more like years). I have so much to be grateful for and a strong support system but the anxious thoughts overpower it all.

My biggest stressors: - I work a full time corporate job and 2 part-time jobs but feel like I don’t have enough money for comfort or my age - I work so much I don’t have many hobbies, don’t see friends very often and haven’t traveled in years - I own my home but want to do so many home projects to make it my own with a small budget and little free time - I am slightly overweight (midsize curvy), I workout/meal plan regularly but struggle to make any progress or see the scale decrease - I haven’t had a boyfriend in years and worry I am only getting older and losing my “fertile” years for having children and being in a loving relationship - I desperately want a relationship with Jesus but can’t get there 100% or make the commitment

Everyday I struggle with worried, anxious thought spirals. I try to make progress, go to therapy, create routines, keep habits, do all the right things but I still feel so, so lost.

I wonder all the time what I should do, what my passions are, where I see my life going, how to make the most of life. I think I spend so much time worried about how to live life that I am not happy with what I have.

Advice, words of wisdom, actions steps or encouragement appreciated. Thanks for reading.
