Yeah…I don’t agree with the sentiment of the OP necessarily. What gets me through shit though is knowing not the meaningless and sometimes inaccurate phrase of “it always gets better”, but rather that “change is inevitable”. Really, the only certainty in life is change. Sometimes it’s change for the better, and sometimes it’s change for the worse. But things do change…whether we do want them to or whether we don’t. It’s always that chance of the next change being a bit more positive that keeps me going in life.
Uhh…when?
44, still haven’t seen it happen for me.

that is because this meaningless platitude is supposed to statistically be applicable to most people, it does not actually guarantee squat.
In other words, hope and pray you’re in the majority.
I’m not OP but I’m learning there’s a buttload of perspective and self-talk that can ruin the most magical existence
Objectively, I’m doing OK or great but ive been sabotaging my thinking for so long it’s hard to recognise
Just one more “once-in-a-lifetime” financial crash
