How do you deal with the fact that you will never accomplish your dreams?

18 hours ago 2

I’m 26 but I feel like a dead man.

My dream was to be a sports broadcaster, to be in great shape, to have a large and fulfilling social circle, and to be in a relationship with someone hot.

After I failed college (completed it but burned bridges due to extreme burnout and other issues), and I don’t have a relationship, I question: what’s the point of it all?

Like, even if I never got my dream of calling Michigan football games on the radio, I wish I was in the same stratosphere as the average person. I wish I at least had a gf and some friends, so life didn’t feel so pointless

Now I work a 20$/hr blue-collar job, live alone, ugly, and in average shape. I feel like a complete outsider anywhere I go. Like I don’t even belong in this world.

I’m like the team that had high aspirations, only to finish 2-10. I’m like the 2024 Florida State Seminoles.

Everyday when I see others have success, it makes me feel that much worse. The fact that I didn’t reach my dreams and the fact that I’m not even close to anyone else professionally, financially or socially, makes me wonder why I should even go forward.

Knowing that I’ll never be who I hoped. What can I do?
