In your 20s, it’s called your Quarter Life Crisis. As @mickymouse pointed out, half your friends are getting making ‘adult’ moves while the rest are still partying like it’s last semester of uni. But nobody seems to have figured everything out. The amount of time that you were in college is as long as the time you’ve been out of college is about as long as you have until you turn 30. Thirty seems so ominous. So... old. And, wait, didn’t we just graduate, like, a year ago? OMG, better hurry up and be successful! Hey, a lot of people have ‘mini crises’ as they reach the middle of whatever decade they are agewise and are suddenly closer to age X than age Y (I.e., I’m 35, I’m now closer to 40 than I am to 30. Oh, no!). It’s hard to do but I think the best thing is not to let your peers’ ‘success’ determine your own sense of accomplishment and self-worth. You’re probably doing a really good job! But if you let other people define your world, they will always make it too small.
