Take a look at this [0] thread, from a 44 year old person. Often, people discuss their problems more frankly anonymously. Many grown adults are also figuring it out. I have some personal advice, which amounts to: 1) stay in shape/ healthy 2) stay in touch with friends and family 3) try as many new things as you reasonably can - no, not drugs - yes, a new sport, hobby, or travel experience 4) be mindful of how you are going to eat/support yourself before committing to expensive and multi-year commitments 5) discipline is a skill that you can learn and improve and is helpful in daily life Good luck, I wish someone had told me the above and I had to learn each the hard way.
