About this ebook
The first book to name and document the challenges of quarterlife, this national bestseller offers young adults guidance, comfort, and advice
Overwhelming choices. The search for meaningful work. Regrets about the past and confusion about relationships. Though the twenties are supposed to be among the best years of our lives, the truth is that this period presents new responsibilities and freedoms that leave young people feeling helpless, indecisive, and panicked.
Offering practical advice, a wealth of information, and startingly candid anecdotes, Quarterlife Crisis addresses the most difficult questions twentysomethings face. It includes the personal stories of more than one hundred young adults who describe their struggles to carve out personal identities; to cope with their fears of failure; to face making choices rather than avoiding them; and to balance all the demanding aspects of personal and professional life. From "What do all my doubts mean?" to "How do I know if the decisions I'm making are right?" this book provides inspiration and reassurance to today's twentysomethings.
