text: how do i stop worrying about things? it seems that i can get anxious or depressed sometimes.  this isn't a medical or psychological problem, it just happens sometimes.  especially during stressful situations.  i'm in my 20s and i feel as if i don't any purpose in life yet.  i graduated from college and have some sort of job but i don't feel accomplished and i wished i worked harder.  i worry too much, what can i do? i couldn't tell you. i figured that at my age that i'd have it all figured out too. i started college late. i have a degree. i ended up with a crappy job, and am now job hunting again. the last job was not very fulfilling. i just know that things are going to work out. there are things that are out of my control, but there are things that are. i just focus on those things. it'll eventually work itself out. the only real successful people that i know struggled years before making it big. they just did a few things to make it happen. 1) never took no for an answer. 2) believed that anything could happen. 3) never gave up on their dreams/goals. 4) just had faith. especially in their selves. i just believe that something will happen as long as i don't give up.
