If you’re somewhere between your mid twenties and thirties, you might be experiencing a low point in your life. A trial of confused identity, misguided purpose, and hopeless transition. And, if you’re anything like me, you feel lost, anxious, and panicked. But I do know I’m not the only one out there that feels like this. This monster is the quarter-life crisis, and it is very real for a lot of young people.
如果你现在二三十岁,你可能正处于人生低谷期,对自己的身份感到困惑、目标被误导、转型又无望,经历着诸多的考验。如果你和我一样的话,你大概会觉得迷茫、焦虑又恐慌。但是我知道不是只有我有这种感觉。这个怪物就是四分之一人生危机,而且对许多年轻人来说,它都是非常真实的。
