The pressure society puts us under

Lately I’ve been anxious and depressed. I think part of this is just chemical and part is medication needing tweaking but after some thought here goes…

Deep down society puts an enormous pressure on us to be parents husbands wives home owners car owners in a career.

I am on my way to some of those things. Some I will never achieve though. But even the ones I will achieve are a massive stress on me right now. And it’s all because it’s what society expects and also security of my future.

My point being society puts a lot of pressure on us to be moulded into these little beings walking around that none of us might not want to be.

Tbh it’s hard for me to stay motivated because of how much pressure there is tbh I doubt I’ll ever be able to live on my own just because even if I achieve half of those things I doubt it’ll be enough.

I’ve come to the conclusion no matter how much someone has or no matter how much they do or how much time they spend here on Earth or no matter how much time we get with someone we love it is never enough.

Well I think we need to learn to set our own standards. If we can achieve what we wanted I think that’s what makes a good life.

The pressure that society is doing on you is great. The demands of society are high. Especially if you are vulnerable.

I don’t believe in this society and therefore I don’t feel its pressure.
