Yes and no. Life itself? Not at all. I feel ill prepared for adulthood and that I have had to spend the past few years figuring it out myself. I feel neglect from my parents. When I told them I was having suicidal thoughts in middle school, they told me it was a phase or how selfish I was for only thinking of myself and how dare I not look for help (even though I kept going to them for help). Since then I have felt like I can't really trust them, and being an adult has proved that true. They have tried to make some advancements hard, saying I owe them thousands of dollars for the past 20 years of my life (I'm sorry you had a child), or threatening to take my car, etc. etc. On top of it all, they don't support any of my decisions, which is fine. You're gonna disappoint your parents a bit in life. But when it comes to identity or life choices...I would more like to have a conversation that doesn't have a fight involved.
But! I do love things in my life. I love my boyfriend, my job, my pets, my close friends...I've been focusing more on myself which can be hard (If anyone follows Enneagram personality types, I'm a Two). I feel things will get better once I am able to move out of my parent's house. Slowly. I'm trying to stay as positive as possible!

Well it depends...sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. I've got depression and anxiety and all those lovely mental issues wrapped in one ugly package and it can make things really difficult. But I live for the little things. A new episode of a show I like, reading my favorite book again, petting a cute cat, listening to a good song...
Yeah, it comes and goes. I'm definitely better off now than I was a couple of years ago but I'm still struggling.

I hope life gets better for all of you who are struggling! I have the infamous anxiety/depression combo along with other mental problems so my life is misery. I just hope that one day it gets better. I was born into a good financial situation with many opportunities , but born with faulty machinery.
On the bright side flight rising is the most effective medicine I've found! ^_^

A very general question about a very complex subject.
A very general question about a very complex subject.
I've come to see life as a cruel, pointless, joke. There is no end goal or purpose, it just exists because it can and does. The hardships and joys of humanity are null and void. Ultimately, nothing matters. So many search for a meaning to life, and yet here I am happy and amused that there is none. Death is but a punchline for a joke that's overstayed its welcome and thoroughly offended nearly everyone in the audience. Pelt the universe with as much garbage and complaints as you like, but it goes on unhindered, uncaring, and unapologetic.
I am laughing at that punchline and don't fear for when I'm the subject of the universe's next stand up routine.
If you look at it right, everything can be and is funny. Just don't think about. Don't let it get to you.

There are good things, sure, but my time's limited - quite possibly more so than the average. I may be a decent chunk of the way through with my life and I have nothing to show for it. I want a legacy to be remembered through, but I only have so much time to create that for myself. I've long since accepted that I'm going to end up dying - everything does, after all - but I don't have enough time to do something memorable. Every moment counts, but it counts too much.

Certain aspects to my life would be easier if conditions were to be improved, and other aspects are comfortable for me. Life will be both good and bad for you, but I have found meaning in enjoying the littlest of things and enjoying the time I have. Some days do get me down and other days are quite content for me, but life is life.

Not really. I have in the past, though, and hope to again someday! *gets determined to fight my demons and starts training like Rock Lee*
