Being an adult requires a lot of figuring it out as you go. But there are some things that we wish would’ve come with a warning. People on “Reddit” are sharing the adult problems that no one prepared them for. Take note:
- Lack of purpose: “All your young life you are given purpose of passing exams and learning, then all of a sudden you are thrown into the world and told to find your own meaning.” —u/Captain_Snow
- You can stay up as late as you want: “But you shouldn’t” —u/geek_fit
- You naturally lose friends: “Where did all my friends go?” —u/I_Love_Small_Breasts
- The ways the body starts to change: “I would have flossed every day if I had really understood the problems age can cause with teeth.” —u/Shastanna
- Burnout is real: “I had nooo idea burnout could be so intense. I was completely dismissive of the concept and thought people were exaggerating. It's insane how much stress harms your body.” —u/OllieOllieOxenfry
- Saving vs. Spending: “$5K is a lot to owe, but not a lot to have.” —u/Upper-Job5130
- Your parents get older too: “Handling the decline and death of your parents” —u/Agave666
- All the maintenance: “Life is all about maintenance. Your body, your house, your relationships, everything requires constant never-ending maintenance.” —u/IHateEditedBgMusic
- Time flies: “The more life you’ve lived, the faster time seems to go.” —u/FadedQuill
- The kitchen is always dirty: “You’ll clean it at least three times every day.” —u/cewnc
