    This was definitely me five years ago.

    I want to say "It gets better" because now I'm making six figures in a cush office job with a decent vacation schedule and a retirement account that can no longer fit in my wallet.

    But... I feel like I'm gripping the last rung of the ladder that's slowly rising into space, and my grip isn't terribly firm. I'm 38 and looking to the future with the fervent hope that things don't get much worse (and the persistent realization that they absolutely will).
